Covers somewhat worn; two small marginal tape-repairs to front cover with is partially detached from cord binding; internal text leaves somewhat age-toned; plates clean and unfaded. Very Good. Preface printed in both Slovak and English by Vojtech Winterstein. Album of drawings depicting the daily lives of prisoners in Nazi concentration camps rendered in Reichentál's singular Expressionist style. Well known and highly-regarded as an avant-gardist through the Twenties and Thirties Reichentál exhibited widely in Germany and Eastern Europe until 1939 when German troops occupied Slovakia forcing the mass exodus of the native Jewish population. Though Reichentál himself was able to evade capture by the Nazis many of his family members died in the camps. He returned to Czechoslovakia after the war finally emigrating to the U.S. in 1950 where he continued to exhibit new work until his death in 1971. Despite the rather generous stated printing of 5000 copies plus 1000 copies of a signed numbered edition this album is notably scarce with only about 15 holdings worldwide noted in WorldCat KVK and COPAC of which ten are in North America.

The album is divided into three sections labelled "commercial photographs" "'captured' photographs" and "personal photographs". The Holocaust images are in the "commercial" section and show piles of corpses concentration camp prisoners both naked and in striped uniforms and views of the camps and crematoria. Other commercial photographs depict combat scenes entertainment and bombed-out cities. The "'Captured' photographs" - it is unsure what the compiler means by this - also appear to be commercially produced. The "personal photographs" were all captured by the compiler and individually captioned. They depict the American soldier - identified only as "me" - while posted in Pupping Austria. The images include portraits of himself and his named comrades views of the Pupping Prisoner-of-War camp local buildings and landscapes and excursions to nearby Linz.

1967réf. 1824721967. Auschwitz memorialized - a record of "the first fully 'international' event" at the former camp A commemorative album for the opening of the memorial at Auschwitz on 16 April 1967 an important stage in its transition to an international memorial site. Situated at the western end of the railway lines that cross the camp the memorial remains a central part of the Auschwitz complex. The large granite memorial was designed by the Italian architects Andrea and Pietro Cascella. Approximately 200000 people attended the unveiling including Polish state officials the East German and Italian foreign ministers and prisoner organisations. The first two photographs show the memorial the third the crowd bound in by the barbed wire and the fourth the Polish prime minister Józef Cyrankiewicz laying a tribute. The remainder show the attendees eating lunch food stalls and chefs preparing the food. Given this the album was presumably produced for the organizers of the catering. "Abstract in form and vague in its message the monument and the events surrounding its unveiling in April 1967 certainly furthered the memorial site's growing international character and testified to the waning relevance of a traditional Polish-national commemorative idiom at Auschwitz. At the same time however the Birkenau monument failed to specify or acknowledge explicitly the suffering and death of Jews as Auschwitz and therefore took its place in the continuum of commemorative marginalization of the Shoah at the site" Huener pp. 145-6. The memorial does not mention the Jews specifically nor did Cyrankiewicz in his remarks at the event as he wished to continue to present the camp as a specifically Polish tragedy. Nonetheless the unveiling "drew tremendous attention from abroad and can therefore be understood as the first fully 'international' event held at the State Museum at Auschwitz. The highly publicized April ceremonies. reached the wider European public and through the presence of countless journalists the world" Huener p. 146. Oblong quarto 36 x 25 cm containing 28 silver gelatin prints ranging from 17 x 12 to 17 x 23 cm mounted on 21 leaves of thick black card string-tied within blue cloth covers.
