this morning i drew out one of my most precious and most loved books to look at the pics!
while looking through it i thought to myself why not share some of the pics!
the selection i made is very small and only very few from that book called "germany", first edition 1931, reprint from 1934! this is of particular interest since the editors retouched one pic with a swastika flag (not included in my selection) AND they included austrian cities in a photo book about germany!
i left the captions in the pics for you to identify the places!
[hide]the pics:
the following two are czech republic nowadays:
this pic from nuremberg is of particular interest since this place looks almost the same today as in the pic from the 1920s/30s - most lovely:
neuschwanstein of course:
the "au" suburb is city center today, the "deutsches museum" still the most spectacular technic museum in all of germany:
i love this photo of the horkheim dam because of the progessive and modern design:
another photo i thoroughly love, the chile house in hamburg, destroyed in operation gomorrha! look at the spectacular architecture, cornered on the left, round shapes on the right:
my mother was up there! a place i will never see in my life since i refuse to climb that far:
the proof that this book is the 1934 edition - below is the birthplace of hitler, braunau am inn! (austria!) if that is the most beautiful pic they could take from braunau i don't want to know what braunau looked and looks:

i hope you like the pics and if you want to see photos of some special place of your interest (maybe family history or the like) i may be able to scan, resize and upload it - if they covered that place in the book!
