German Family Photograph Album: Athletics (1931- )


Figure 1.--Here we see some of the younger boys involved in athletics during 1931. Notice the "RG" on their shirts. Some of the boys have different shirts, perhaps from a different school.

The album has numerous photographs of boys doing athletics. We think these images are from a secondary school. There are no good photographs pf the school, but many of the photographs have a brick wall in the background. Only one is dated, a 1931 photograph. Like the primary school photographs, the athletics photographs do not seem to focus on any one boy. We note several boys have athletic shirts with "RG"". We note other shirts, perhaps an event between schools. I wonder if this is the initials of the school. We see the boys doing various events, including shot puts and high jumps as well as a school tug-of-war. We notice boy younger and older boys involved in the events, conforming our speculation that it is a secondary school.
