Heer Photobook 1930's
I recently bought this approx. 8"x10" photobook that was made by a soldat from a signals unit. The photos span from the early to later 1930's with the last one showing a grave then several more blank pages. There are over a hundred photographs and a couple postcards. Most photos are personal snapshots but several are commercially produced. One card shows a parade for Hitler's birthday in 1936. It is interesting to see the changes in uniform styles that take place as the pages are turned.
continuing with the front leaders portion.
Now some of the personal photos
Some more
Notice that the men are still wearing the M1923 field cap
It generally continues like this so now for what I think are interesting individual photos.
Looks like the brewery might still be there. This is a photo from the 1980s. NH
I'll end this post with a few more. The grave photo and the remaining blank pages makes me believe he was killed before the war began. Maybe in Austria or Czechoslovakia?
And so the book ends...then several blank pages.
Here's some close-ups of the grave. Perhaps someone with better eyes than me can make something out.
I hope you all were entertained.
Looks like the date might be 1937, but I'm not sure. Very nice photo book. Jay
