Original Austrian Labor Service Camp Photo-Lager Pertisau, Tirol

Original pre-World War II photograph depicting members of the Österreichischer Arbeitsdienst (Austrian Labor Service) standing in formation at Lager Pertisau, Tirol (Tyrol), Austria. The image captures a line of uniformed labor service personnel with the dramatic Alpine mountains providing an impressive backdrop.

The photograph is mounted on its original presentation card and bears a purple ink stamp reading:

“ÖSTERREICHISCHER ARBEITSDIENST
Lager Pertisau, Tirol.”

The Austrian Labor Service was established during the First Austrian Republic as a voluntary labor organization prior to the 1938 Anschluss. Photographs bearing official camp markings from this period are increasingly difficult to find and offer an excellent glimpse into Austria’s interwar history.

This original period photograph is ideal for collectors of Austrian militaria, pre-war Europe, labor service memorabilia, Alpine history, or historical photography.

Condition:
Good original condition with age-related toning, edge wear, light staining to the mount, and minor handling wear. The photograph remains well preserved with good contrast and clear details. The reverse is blank. Please review all photographs for the best representation of condition.
