Third Reich Photo Collection
“Winners will be notified after the auction ends and once all bids have been processed to determine the winner for each lot”
Incredible collection of WWII photographs taken by Hitler's personal photographer, Heinrich Hoffman. Lot includes 38 black and white 5'' x 7'' photos, many of which include German language captions and photographer Heinrich Hoffmann's stamp on verso. Interestingly, Hoffman was responsible for introducing the Chancellor to his future wife, Eva Braun, as she was Hoffman's lab assistant at the time. Notable images include a photo of Air Force commander Hermann Goering; two photos of propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels; a portrait of General Ferdinand Schorner; various war-ravaged urban areas and battlements; WWII-era tanks, planes and artillery; and countless photos of German soldiers ''dug-in'' and ''on patrol.'' Near fine.
