I suggest you leave them as they are. The only time I have ever removed original ww2 photos from an photo album is when I bought one where the pictures had been put into an old 1980´s (sticker type of album). This album looks to me like it´s the original period one. Ít´s part of the story.
Best,

Agreed, I'd leave it as is. As long as it's stored properly and looked after, it shouldn't get any worse. It's survived the last seventy years or so. As long as you take good care of it it'll be fine.
Regards, B.B.

Great...thanks for the comments! I'll re-affix the loose photos using the adhesive corner keeps and leave it as is.

Are there any captions written under any of the pictures to identify where they were taken? I'm sure others would like to see more pictures from your album as much as I would.

There are captions written on the backs in German...but as most are glued in I can't read them all. I'll post a few more pictures tomorrow...im just in the process of photographing the photos...thanks for your interest!

Looking forward to seeing more, even those two you posted seem to tell a story, albeit slightly disturbing - as we can only guess at the fate or otherwise of the civilians.
What is evident though is the yellowing of the photographs caused by age, exposure to light or bad fixative of the print originally. Scanning or duplicating the photos is a good idea, to protect over exposure of the originals bright light - the writing on the backs might ID the location or those shown. A nice piece of detective work in store for you.
