[Leica] IMG: a world that no longer exists

[Jean-Michel Mertz]

Very moving pictures, Nathan, and so well preserved. Someone will have to write the story of the shoebox as a family treasure trove. A world that no longer exists, indeed, and people who have had to face a terrible fate. Thanks for sharing this very private part of your life.

> 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:
