Adolph Hitler motorcade photos

[Rakkasan187]

These pictures came from a luftwaffe photo album that was brought back by a veteran. ( I will post the album in another topic) These are two pictures of Adolf Hitler and the captoion on the back of the first picture translates "The Fuhrer driving to the train station"

The second picture would also appear to be a motorcade of some sort and it may be Hitler in the first car, but what is really interesting about the picture are the assortment of flags. In the upper left the large German flag and in the center right you will see the Japanese Flag and then in the upper right on the building more flags are seen, possibly the Italian flag.

There was no caption on the back of the second picture

Enjoy

Paul,

 

This was in a huge grouping from a Soldier in an Artillery unit in Italy. There were several hundred photos including some never seen concentration camp pictures that he obtained as well. Most of the photos also came with their negatives.

 

The Luftwaffe album was interesting as it had both Luftewaffe photos and then after the Soldier obtained it, he added his own photos. Great pictures of the ME262, and several other aircraft as well as damaged German vehicles, artillery pieces and pictures of Italy, (Pisa) etc
