“For the purposes of race studies” an advertisement in the periodical Der Photograph solicits pictures of “Jews on the beach and at the dance; Jews and ‘Aryans’ (mixed couples and half-breeds); colored people and people of other races with ‘Aryan’ girls, and vice versa.”
The advertisement states that “photographs taken in Summer and at the seaside are preferred.” The C.-V. Zeitung, official organ of the Central Union of German Citizens of Jewish Faith, hazards the guess that a book similar to “Jews Look at You” is in course of preparation.
