Tel Aviv: Anti-Nazi League, April, 1940
<< Likely the earliest visual documentation of Nazi crimes against Jews in Europe.>>===This scarce booklet was published by the Anti-Nazi League of Palestine in order to publicize the extent of German atrocities in Europe, specifically in Poland. “Hitlerism means return to the savagery of the Middle Ages… The Black Album contains the first series of pictures disclosing Nazi atrocities in Poland. The Black Album gives a vivid description of the Nazi regime and its cruel systems. Everybody is hereby enabled to unmask Hitlerism by sending the postcards of the Album to his friends and acquaintances all over the world.”
