WWII Dachau Photo Album
"WINNERS WILL BE NOTIFIED AFTER THE AUCTION ENDS BY THE AUCTIONEER ONCE ALL BIDS HAVE BEEN PROCESSED TO DETERMINE THE WINNER FOR EACH LOT."
Meticulously organized and captioned collection of Dachau concentration camp photos from a WWII veteran's estate. Most of the pictures are hand-captioned on the front or back and include chilling scenes from the liberation of Dachau, including photos of the German troops surrendering and graphic, haunting images of the Jewish prisoners. Other photos in the album document the soldier's tour of duty in western Europe. Lot includes 105 photographs in the album and six unbound, many of which are printed ''Velox'' on verso (the brand of paper on which they were developed). Also includes eight postcards. Album is off-white, cord-bound and gold-embossed ''PHOTOGRAPHS'' on the cover. Measures 15.25'' x 11.5'', with pictures ranging from 3'' x 2.5'' to 5'' x 4''. Photos are affixed to black paper pages, most of which have tears at the binding holes. The pictures are well-maintained and in fine condition, though a few have corners slightly bent from mounting in the album. Pages have some bending and tearing along edges as well as some ink smudging. Overall in very good condition.
