Photographic presentation album containing 28 black and white 5.5 x 3.5inch [13 x 8.5cm] showing photographs of the German Nazi occupation of Poland and the post-war exhumation and reburial of Polish civilians murdered by German forces [apparently SS and Volksdeutcher Selbstchutz] in the town of Bydgoszcz, Poland. Photographs are from Ilustrowany Kurier Polski with many being extremely graphic. The album is likely to have been presented to Cardinal Griffin during his visit to Bydgoszcz on 14 June 1947.
