AFRIKA KORPS PHOTOGRAPH ALBUM
AFRIKA KORPS PHOTOGRAPH ALBUM
Superb photo album compiled by an officer in the Afrika Korps, contains over 70 photographs of various sizes, most taken by the officer himself. The unidentified officer himself appears in a few images, followed by images of motor troop and supply transports, desert encampment, tanks and airfields, Gen. Erwin Rommel reviewing troops and assessing the countryside, Benghazi and Tripoli city scenes, antiaircraft and shattered vehicles at Tobruk, British prisoners, captured colonial soldier, German graves, etc. The cover of the album is wonderful, with printed names of locales at which the soldier fought: "Italy Libya Tunisia Sicily 19429143", along with a hand-painted palm tree with swastika at center, mimicking the Afrika Korps emblem. Overall very good.
