The group also includes men in civilian attire and several different styles of uniform, suggesting this photograph was taken during an organized SA\/NSDAP gathering, meeting, training event, or similar official function.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe photograph appears consistent with the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1930s Third Reich period\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e based on the uniforms, insignia, clothing, photographic construction, and paper. Of particular importance, the reverse of the photograph carries repeating \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAgfa-Lupex\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e markings. Agfa-Lupex was German photographic paper used during this general period and provides an additional period-consistent feature of the photograph. The watermark is clearly visible and photographed for reference.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis is a considerably more impressive image than the typical small individual German military or political photograph. Numerous SA uniforms and armbands are visible throughout the group, while the large format provides excellent detail of the individuals, uniforms, insignia, and surrounding buildings. The location and individuals are currently unidentified and may offer additional research potential.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe photograph was found housed in the older gold-tone frame shown. The photograph has been removed from the frame for inspection, allowing the entire reverse and Agfa-Lupex markings to be documented. No photographer’s studio stamp or definitive period caption was found. A small handwritten collector\/dealer notation is present near one corner of the reverse.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCondition is good overall considering its age. The image remains clear with good contrast and considerable detail. There is expected age toning along with scattered handling\/storage wear. The reverse exhibits age-related discoloration and several edge\/corner creases or cracks. The frame and backing show considerably more age and wear, including deterioration of the original paper backing.
