Lost KDF pictures (from Life Magazine)

igtoth

These pictures was taken by photografer from Life Magazine and was lost for more than 50 years. Found by a german nurse during the war, after her death, her daughter gave back them to the actual owner of the Life Magazine copyrights. Pictures are from 1939-1940.

*Not sure if this is the real history* and not sure if you guys already saw these pictures. But I never saw, and they are very nice quality.. If interested, I can post here the full set (about 50 pictures), not from the KDF itself.

I put a link on here to hundreds of time life pics last year, but cant find them anywhere, was there a copyright issue on them? If there is, and Everett sees this thread he may be forced to pull the thread?
