    Opinion on some SS and Luft photos

    I could pick these up from a guy but I wondered if you guys see any red flags? They are all 5 X 7 and have no writing or stamps on the backs. Also there is no residue to indicate they were in a photo album. They don't glow under blacklight.

      First red flag being the size.... the second would be the mylar holders don't help much to see the quality of the photographs. Are the backs marked?

        There are no markings -- just white background -- except at one time at least one was for sale I suppose because it has the word "pictures" and a european crossed 7. Three of them have no plastic. I could take the rest out of the baggies if that would help and take more photos tomorrow.

        Thanks

          You should do that maybe more viewers will chime in. Their size turns me off.... I could be wrong but it was not very typical. Also, the fact that the paper is not marked stirs me to believe they were reproduced. Just my opinion.... or maybe I'm missing something here.

            The light on the photos distract me to look to the colors of the photo and how they evolve. Some real clear shots will give me more certainness. If you would make a little effort to post scans of the back, it would be most appreciated. Even though they are blank, for me or other experts they give away details.

            But on the first sight ... They are good reprints. For a more definitive and learnfull answer, above mentioned is welcome.

            EDIT: I also do recognize the first photograph posted and a W-SS portrait.
            EDIT II: From crispy clear shots like these, the backs are almost always marked with the quality photo paper.

              It would be in your best interest to pass on every one of these photos if you collect original, period prints....

                I figured as much -- thanks fellas. I had to try when he said an SS grouping came in. He let me examine them first so I'm glad.

                Thanks again.
