Jewish Police in Litzmannstad Ghetto wearing armbands

Super rare and excellent period photo of some Ordungsdienst members of the Litzmannstadt Ghetto in Lodz (Poland) posing for a group photo showing proudly their armbands. Ordungsdienst was the Ghetto police that was used by the Nazis to control Jewish ghettos, being very collaborative with the Germans. However, their fate was the same of the other Jews: the extermination.Not many photos of Ghetto police are known to exist.
