  War Crimes Tribunal documents, 1945
Posted by: afc7883 - 10-11-2006, 07:38 PM - Forum: Collectables - Replies (5)


I put most of the info in the title already, but this is a scan of a 4-page document which I was fortunate enough to obtain recently. It is an original English translation which was supplied to both prosecutors and defence attorneys during the War Crimes Tribunals in 1945. There were fewer than 20 of these printed, and at one time this one belonged to the Berlin lawyer of Albert Speers. This particular testimony pertains to an SS General Lorner in regards to incoming prisoners and supplies at several concentration camps. I don't know how well the scan will show details, but one column lists 90,000 prisoners coming from "anti-jewish action" in Hungary. One thing about the Nazis...they kept impeccable records, which helped to hang them after the war!

I have this thing in plastic AND inside a frame, as it is still in great condition aside from some yellowing and a darkened staple. A great piece of history, albeit a bit creepy.

 

 

DD :woof:

 

ps- Guess the scan didn't turn out so you could read it...sorry! :pdt33:

I don't know how to say this, but I just found out that Rocky's wife Elizabeth passed away a few hours ago. :(:(

 

I can't imagine how hard it was for Rocky to tell me, because I am having a hard enough time telling all of you.

 

I will say that she did pass away in her home while Rocky held her. I promise I will post her obit tomorrow. :(:(

 

God bless you Rocky in your time of need. I wish I could fly to Kansas City to be there for you buddy. I love ya. I'm so, so sorry... :pal::pal:
