Russian archive translation help.

[MH184]

I've several photo's from the Russian archive with this Russian script on the back, can any our Russian friends or speakers translate this for me please.

Also, the stamp I assume of the archive and then the pencil numbers catalouging numbers I'd guess, what please does the stamp say ?

Thank you kindly for any help,

Kind regards,

Marcus

Hi Marcus,

I can try to help you with the translation:
погасить & снять с учета in Russian means almost the same -
to strike off the register.
спец.фонд МВД УССР-spesial purpose fund of USSR(Ukraine)
Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Unfortunately you can see this marks on the fake pics

KR,
Roman

Personal Hi from Victoria

Thank you Roman and of course Victoria


You say fake pictures ! Would you suspect these as fake by the looks of them ?

How could I tell fake pictures from real ones ?

Kind regards,

Marcus

These were found in the late 1990s. They are from Ukraine. They were discovered with a LARGE lot of documents also..It was explained to me while I was there that these were for I.D. purposes.Most of the shots were of SS men and POA I have seen panzer and high rankers of the other branches of the armed services. Supposedly made from original negatives shortly after the war. Some are cropped to show just the faces of the men they thought they were to be looking for. The stamps are for the agency as explained above, and the other 2 are that the photo was checked [confirmed status of guy] and the released from list stamp.. Last summer I have seen some awful copies of these on current photo paper that glowed...The early ones i have seen from the late 1940s / 1950s, had the correct paper. , G.
