Second picture:
I found this picture in a documentary. It's the same sign "East meets West" but in color.
Nice picture, thanks for posting it.
The image is from the documentary "D-Day to Berlin" and was filmed in colour by the Hollywood director George Stevens. He was officially appointed to record the invasion of Europe with a black & white 35 mm camera (a Bell & Howell Eyemo), but also took his own 16mm camera (Bell & Howell Filmo) loaded with colour Kodachrome film, and made a personal diary of his adventure in colour.
It is an awesome recollection of footage, especially of the liberation of Paris, of the Dachau Camp and the encounter of the U.S. and Soviet armies in Torgau.
Really worth watching. It is available in the Mule. (and you can watch it online on Youtube).
Cheers,
Gus
