Description
This is an original newspaper photo “Druckplatte” (printing plate) of SS Standartenführer Otto Skorzeny.
It measures 12 x 5,8 centimeters.
The plate itself is unique. It is made of what appears to be messing and very thin, only about 2-3 millimeters. It was attached to a newspaper printblock and with this plate were probably thousands and thousands of newspapers printed. It’s a unique piece of history and could be the centrepiece in a collection of photographs.
Very rare! Im not aware of another in existence!
ps: I added a picture found via google that shows the full image of which the here offered plate is a close up as it was printed in the newspapers.
