Sent to me via Canada and places me in the Eiskellerberg Elementary School, Düsseldorf, for the annual carneval festivity, when we were allowed to wear costumes. Taken in the 1950's. Alexander is 3rd from left and I am next to him, 4th in line. |

The high school was

There comes a time, when the group gets so small. that hiding was no longer an option for Alex (except for Nixdorff). |
