Title: antique photo execution tower
Post by: awhitetriangle on February 13, 2017, 04:46:49 AM

Picked up a box of antique photos the other day, a few interesting ones in there! I'm struggling to find the location on the back it says execution tower "hamburg"? i searched and couldn't find anything so i'm guessing i've misread it! any thoughts? cheers...
