Black hard-board covered book, spiral bound with white text “Nazi Hel” and a swastika.
Information Provided by Michael D. Bulmash:
Nazi Hel is a first edition photo documentary of black-and-white photos taken by the Allies after the liberation of the concentration camps in 1945. Most of the photos were taken at Bergen-Belsen by the British army. Others were taken at Buchenwald, Mauthausen and Langenstein, and Schwabmuenchen. A two-page introduction is in Dutch, along with a map depicting the location of some of the larger concentration and labor camps. The final photograph is of a Dutch woman who belonged to the resistance, killed just one day before her home town of Deventer was liberated.
