A nice and orginal 1943 dated German made Waffen SS so called 'presse foto' of a Canadian POW (Prisoner of War) of the Midland Regiment

This is a good example of a nice and orginal 1943 dated German made Waffen SS so called 'presse foto' of a Canadian POW (Prisoner of War) of the Midland Regiment. The Regiment was not been able to go overseas as a unit but some members of the Regiment were used as a re-inforcement for other units. So more likely Jean Simpson as the man is called on the photo is one of these re-inforcements. The photograph still retains its original (machine-typed) press information page glued to back. This large-sized picture - it measures 18.0 x 24,5 cms - is neatly printed in a black and white on a semy glossy paper. These propaganda-type ‘high-quality’ photos were for example used to illustrate the various magazines and/or newspapers. A simply and nice unsual item!
