Collection of [10] photo postcards of the ruins of Warsaw. 1940s
Ten photo postcards published by fot. j. Mizerski depicting Warsaw after the Nazi destruction. The destruction was carried out per the explicit instructions of Hitler after he received the report about the suppression of the Warsaw Uprising which broke out on 01.08.1944. The destruction included the bombardment of the government buildings, the old city and royal castle. The postcards depict the ruins of various places in the city, with printed Polish captions on the bottom of each postcard: municipal buildings, tower with many floors, memorial to the unknown soldier, churches and more.
Very fine condition.
