Bundesarchiv & Wiki

[Ardee]

I hope this isn't a re-post, but it was new to me and some other folks I've shared it with. The Bundesarchiv has a limited agreement with Wiki, in which several thousand WWII photos are being made available in the Wiki Commons (actually, it looks like the sytem will accommodate up to 2006, though I haven't looked outside my area of interest...). The photos on Wiki are larger, higher-rez than what the search function on the Bundesarchiv site provides, and they also lack the watermark. Here's the link where you can choose which year (need to scroll down though) that you are interested in:

I sorry, it is a repost. The thread was in the Strictly Photos and Video sub forum.
It was called Bundesarchiv.

Ah, well. I had tried a title search, but choose "Wiki" as the more "unique" word for a thread title. C'est la vie....
