Frank Elkins collection

Booklet: "These 21" written by Allan Dreyfuss and published by Stars and Stripes, based on Dreyfuss's assigned coverage of the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg in December 1945. Each of the 21 Nazi defendants' positions within the Third Reich is detailed as well as the crimes of which they are accused. The defendants original signatures are taped in the booklet in the chapter in which they are included by Frank Elkins, a United States military police officer who worked at the IMT. Also included are two handwritten notes, from defendants Fritz Sauckel and Hans Fritsche requesting to meet with other defendants. Also included is a letter addressed to Elkins in Germany, January 1947, from Kurt Schindler, a locksmith in Nuremberg, bartering his services for 10 packs of cigarettes.
