Rare Color Photos 1940 Poland
 
http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2012/...96_964x642.jpg
An elderly man with a yellow Star of David
fixed to his chest, speaks with German officers
as he and other Jews are rounded up in Kutno,
German-occupied Poland in 1939


http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2012/...26_964x648.jpg
Innocent victims: These young Jewish girls
couldn't possibly have imagined the horrors
that lay ahead as they pose outside their tent
in another haunting photograph

http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2012/...76_964x643.jpg
Ghetto boys: In their tattered rags the
two boys smile for the camera,
but the man in the centre, most probably
their father, has a look of distrust etched across his face

While most Jaeger's photographs focus
on the glory and triumphalism of the Reich,
here he has chosen instead to capture
the misery of the conquered people instead

http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2012/...96_964x641.jpg
With their clean clothes and hair neatly
coiffured, these three young women do not,
at first glance, appear anything
like Jaeger's other subjects. But look closer
and you find a star of David on the coat of the girl on the left

http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2012/...66_964x633.jpg
Makeshift dwelling: Jewish inhabitants
of the Kutno Ghetto stand near a car
which has been converted into a makeshift house in early 1940

http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2012/...5_964x1432.jpg
Despite the awfulness of her predicament,
this Jewish woman manages to smile brightly
for the camera as she poses for Jaeger

A peddler in Warsaw, Nazi-occupied Poland, 1940.

Makes it seem almost like they are stills from Movies when you see pictures this old in Color, it's weird because your that use to seeing pictures from the war periods being in black and white that you almost imagine the war being in black and white
