    It appears that these people are receiving the Sacrament of Holy Communion from a Priest.

    Grenze Italien/Deutschland ? Wie ist denn das passiert ?
  • Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons said:
    Strubbel2013 I think you are asking if this is the border of Italy/ Germany and what is happening? The image relates to Czech migrant Alex Nypl who migrated to Australia in the late 1940s. Alex journeyed to Italy to join the migrant ship PROTEA which sailed to Melbourne from Genoa in 1948. I hope that makes sense :)
  • margincall42 said:
    I think what needs to be noted is that there is no border between Germany. Never was unless we accept the Anschluss that ended in 1945. This photo was taken in 1948 and mr Nypl may have been confused, he would have crossed the border from Austria to Italy.

    Hi, I'm an admin for a group called 20th-Century Prefab Homes, and we'd love to have your photo added to the group.

    these row shelters were usually two or three room homes. also, there was't any air conditioning nor heating. the stoves oven, if it had one, was used as the heater. this looks like a saturday or sunday afternoon. most are dressed in their sunday best. these labor camps were scattered all the way down to Brownsville. we lived in one in Harlingen.
