A few photo album photos

[edwest]

I learned about this Russian site from another message board.

http://reibert.info/gallery/v/foto_album/


If you look at the top left, you'll see one photo album with No. 25 and the one below it, No. 23. No. 25 has an He 111 numbered VB+EF on page 7. No. 23 has an He 46 with a partial code H1+?? on page 7. In order to turn the pages, just click on the blue text with tiny arrows pointing to the right at the bottom right corner. To enlarge, just click on the photo.



Usual disclaimer,

Hi Ed

Thanks for the pointer

The Type with H1 code is a Hs 126 and not He 46.

Keep em coming

Thanks for your sterling efforts

Regards

You are both very welcome. Thanks for the correction.

Wonderful data!
It pleases me no end this guy preferred providing good scans on the net for everyone to see (and store if inclined to) instead of selling them on E-bay as bits and pieces...In the end knowledge is meant to to be shared and spread, after all...This is the only way such unique documents will survive...where I have deep reservations about what will become ultimately of all the E-bay photos you let us know of Ed!

Not so. A lot of e-bay photos survive. And if you cast your net wide enough, you would see quite a few of them in books...

Correct. Like this one: http://www.avions-bateaux.com/fr/cat...logue_990.html
(Correction to the Publisher's promotional page: the number of photos included in this photo book is not 150, but rather approx. 350).

Fortunately, it is true, and that a good thing (I have this book, by the way Bernàd!)...But it is obvious an enormous lot of it go out in the light a brief time to go back to a drawer for...long...until death do them part...We know enough horror stories about uninterested families getting rid of the stupid stuff! So what do you think could be done to improve the situation? Books are good but a very partial answer!

I have often thought about this question especially when I see photos that contain pictures of the crew. I try to buy what I can and both my sons know how important they are so I think that they will be saved. We should all try to share what we have in forums such as this so they are not lost in a drawer.
