What Really Happened There?

A camera is recovered from bomb shelter debris,
30 years after the signing of unconditional surrender.

Five photographs of the roll were shot.
Their historical value is yet undetermined.

Snapshot number 1 is of a group of burly men
of uncouth appearance sitting around a conference table.

The second photo is of a bunker type space
filled with calabashes and ax handles.

Photo number 3 speaks to me in the dialect of Upper Silesia.
It is of an elderly lady heavily made up.

The fourth snapshot is of 3 Gypsies,
wild and crazy, dancing on the head of a pin.

Snapshot number 5 is blurred,and looks like
a sudden flash of light might have fogged the negative.

19 of 24 photos left blank for posterity.
