Bernhard,

Great pics. I was wondering if you are able to locate any further photos of an Allgemeine-SS unit that was stationed at Graz? I have two period photos from 1938 when AH visited the city after the Anschluss. The SS men on parade are wearing a rare version of the black SS helmet that I would like to get additional pictures of.

This image is from Hoffmann's 3D photo-book "Deutschlands Wiedergeburt".

Cheers,

As I see this picture come back in this thread as well, maybe I have luck in this one.

Does anyone know where this image is taken? They are all from the same street in Graz (Austria) on April 3rd, 1938, but which street?

I have uploaded some more and have put them in this thread. Hope someone can help me.
