    KL uniform for inmate who was in Neuengamme and Ravensbrück

    These items came out of the local woodwork several years ago, and I was recently able to aquire them from the previous owner who was in need of funds. It is a grouping of the wartime mementos of French political prisonner René Gaffuri, who was transported to Germany in August 1944, and was an inmate in Neuengamme, and later Ravensbrück. More details and photos in this thread: http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...=312670&page=8

    I know these items make some collectors uneasy, but previous threads show that these discussions do belong to the SS forum. Feel free not to look or comment if you find such items offensive.

    Mr Gaffuri, presumably upon release from the camps in 1945.

                    Interesting, but would never call something like this "nice". I would never put something like this in my collection also this thread or material fits better in the history section then in the SS uniform cloth section.

                      You are right, the word "nice" wasn´t very suitable to describe this group. I am sorry for that.

                        Those of you who also have similar items are welcome to post them in the thread I posted the link to in post 1, that is a reference of sorts.

                          Very Powerful images. When we forget is when we go down a dark path.
