Yes thanks to a Norway Photographer
Shows so much promise
No Public knew of the Death Camps to Come
The germans were like sheep.

Fascinating. Hard to equate these pictures with the carnage they brought to the world a couple of years later.

[arista]

Yes Sure
But as they were taken by a Norway Man
I think they are Great.

[Livia]

They are great Arista. It's remarkable to see all those normal people going about normal lives doing normal things with Hell just around the corner.

[Niall]

This is really quite amazing. Thanks for posting these, Arista!

Say what you like about the Nazi's, but their commitment to clean streets has been overlooked by history for some reason.

Silence, Jew.

Yeah, by comparison, we live in filth ..... :idc:

Really sad to think some people on those photos may be Jewish and they had no idea of what was going to happen :(

Jews weren't openly walking around Germany without a care in the world at that stage. They were already being attacked, ghetto-ised, murdered, and having their possessions stolen away from them and given to pure blooded Germans.

You would know if they were Jewish, as they had to wear a badge highlighting that very fact.

You just don't imagine that time period to be in colour, with mostly black and white photographs taken. Fascinating to see.
