Description

Four photo albums with a total of 916 photos of a female ski racer.

The photos document her ski training very well. Please note the swastika sleeve badge on her ski suit. Furthermore 15 excellent photos from the 1936 Winter Olympics in Garmisch-Partenkirchen. Possibly she was part of the Olympic team. Three photos of Olympic champions (Berlin Olympics 1936) were taken at a sporting event in the fall of 1936. Also excellent Zepplin photos and shots of a "Falk 9" glider. 

Most of the photos have a civilian background but show very well the everyday life at that time. The photographer was very talented, so the photos are of very good quality. A real treasure trove!

Some photos were taken from the albums. Signs of use. Good condition.
