Family photo

[Jack the collector]

Here is a photo that I have had in my collection for a while.Obviously it shows a Mother,Father,Daughter and Son.It is a large photo that tells a tale I think.Interesting how the family served 3 different organisations of the Reich.The daughter worked for the German National Railway(Reichsbahn).The Son was in the Luftwaffe.Dads in the army of course.

I can't help but wonder who among them was able to look at the photo after the war, and remember...

I was thinking more or less the same thing, and wondering how many of them survived.

So, how exactly did you get this photo into your collection in the first place?

[Jack the collector]

Photos such as these are not uncommon to find.This one I obtained from a German antique photograph dealer.Any WW2 artifact can be had for the right amount of money.

I should remember that the next time I'm in Bavaria. I imagine there are some interesting photos for sale in any number of towns there.

By the way I can't but help notice the resemblance between the daughter in the photo and Rosie O'Donnell.

your right she does resemble Rosie.Phidippides if you want some period German photos contact me via PM and I'll let you know what I have,I have a shoe box full so obviously I can't scan them all to send via email. 10 day inspection and I will give this forum aka Jim O 10% commission for what you buy if you like any of the photos.

She does indeed. And thanks Jack. It would of course go to we hosting and other expenses.

Naturally,if anyone wants period WW2 photos that I have to sell,they are welcome to inquire.In fact Jim if you want to have a silent auction to help defray expenses,let me know I have a few items I could donate to the cause.
