Color War Slides from Ian

[i.spring]

hi guys. I mentioned a few days ago a friend of mine last weekend found a box of old german war slides at a flea market in west germany. He found it under a mountain of old cloths and magazines in a everything cost 1 euro box...
So just got them now.. cool
More than 80 agfacolor private color slides taken by a german Funker radio man in an artillery unit. Kasserne life 1938 or 1939.. not sure where yet but there are lots of great color slides showing a big city with a cathedral.. so i think ill find that
Here is the sneak peek
Ill be working on these the next few weeks and adding them to pixpast as I find time.
Enjoy.

soon after Operation Plunder in May1945 (the allied crossing of the Rhine) This american soldier took a moment to photograph in Kodachrome color film the fresh war graves of the defending german soldiers on the east side of the Rhino.

hello everyone. end of last year I sold this wonderful agfacolor color slide showing Me109s in Russia to another color slide collector. It was posted from Munich to Berlin end of 2019. It was stolen in the german post. I wanted to post an image here just in case someone gets offered this ? Thank you. Ian

Sorry not a M2. This is the M1 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M1_Combat_Car which is much better for your collection as this is the only colour photo I have ever seen of it.
