In the late 1930's Hugo Jaeger was an early adopter of colour photo's,when his work was introduced to the Fuhrer he liked what he saw.between 1936 and 1945 he had unprecedented access to Hitler from public events to small private gatherings many coloured photos were taken,some members may have seen these but for those who have not enjoy.................Jake.

I understand that he buried his photos of Hitler in glass jars after the war, dug them up years later and sold them to LIFE Magazine for a decent sum of money in 1965...He's certainly not as well-known as Heinrich Hoffmann, but these rare images are certainly appreciated, thanks for showing...
