[Leica] IMG: a world that no longer exists

[Frank Filippone]

It is never easy.

I sincerely hope that someone wrote on the prints, identifying each person.....  We have several boxes of prints, with no ID on most.

Not that our kids would ever care, but I know that for us, these are family....

And family counts.

Jim s pictures of his family from the 20th century inspire me to share pictures from Lublin, Poland in the 1920s and 1930s. I inherited these pictures from my father after he died in 2004, and have scanned them but I have not been able (emotionally) to do anything serious with them. I just note that they have held up very well considering what they have been through, and that they depict a world that was brutally destroyed. The vast majority of the people you see in these pictures perished in the Holocaust, including my father s younger brother, after whom I am named:
