I understand how you feel. I have a friend from Berlin. When he came over here for vacay, he was mystified by our patriotism. About displaying Old Glory, "We wouldn't do that". Seems many Germans are ashamed of their history, understandibly.
Except for the brown spikes, the Sanella shot is gorgeous, as is that entire book. But I stay away from it due to the numbers. There seems to be just too many to have weathered all those assaults, incendiary attacks and general hardships. Unless they chewed on raw sticks of margarine night and day that year, I believe it was produced well beyond 1932-33.
