Photographs, 1930s-1960s.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/52870885

This collection consists of 36 black and white portraits, most of well-known American and European men and women, taken in Berlin and the U.S. Jacobi signed some of the photos and etched her signature into the negatives of others. All of the photographs are matted and some are framed. Few of the photos have more than the subject's name and Jacobi's name and address (which may help researchers date the prints) on the back. Dates and other information were added to the photo list by the processor, based on information in the book Lotte Jacobi.

36 photographs.
