The Soldbuch and contents came from a family member, having been found on his body in 1951.
Most of the contents have been glued to card to preserve the condition. The Soldbuch is complete but has suffered heavy damage some of the entries are still legible. The items have been marked with a Red Cross number written in red pencil. The group come in its Red Cross envelope, this is charcoal lined to help stop the deterioration of the paper.
Be under no illusion this group is in poor condition as you would expect considering the circumstance which the group was found, but quite remarkable to have survived.
