Description

+++ THANKS FOR YOUR PATIENCE. 1400 PICTURES LOADING +++

An important archive of WWII Luftwaffe Kriegsberichterstatter (war photographer, war correspondent) Harry Gehm. Part of the grouping are seven comprehensive folders containing countless documents and photos. Most of the documents are wartime articles he wrote for propaganda magazines. While Gehm worked at various scenes of WWII, his main work was on German Jagdgeschwader units. 

The six folders are concentrating on Jagdgeschwader 54, Jagdgeschwader 2, Kampfgeschwader 40 and I./Jagdgeschwader 2 dating back to 1940 - 1944/45. One folder even contains material of the Invasion front at Normany.

We have taken over 1400 pictures to provide more details than we could describe with words. 
A once in a lifetime chance!

The archive includes 890 original photographs.
