Re: Herman Haacke Freiburg

Yes Blur,
sorry for being late, it`s from Freiburg. Badenia had been a quite liberal duchy late 19th century.

Re: What do you collect?

Aha. I thought it was a kind of washingpowder like OMO or IMI. It is horrible watching the brainless trading of war relics and similar objects. Is there no copyright on the swastika?

Re: Herman Haacke Freiburg

Hi Edge,
maybe the publisher Hermann Haacke. I think he had joined with Herder-Verlag those days.

Re: What do you collect?

Yes, I collect stories and rememberances. Family history at war and in peace. There was a photograph in the guestroom of my grandparents showing my grandgrandgrandmother with a baby.

Re: A whole set - arbeitsbuch, letter, ahnenpass
