I researched the following:

Photo-Source is the German book by Erich Retzlaff: Wegbereiter und Vorkämpfer für das neue Deutschland (i.e. Pioneers and Protagonists for the new Germany), published by Lehmann in Munich in 1933. Erich Retzlaff (1899-1993) and his brother Hans Retzlaff (1902-1965) were Nazi star photographers in the 1930s [1]. Editor of this propaganda pictorial [2] was the Prussian aristocrate and officer Wilhelm Freiherr von Müffling in the year of the so called Machtergreifung. The Deutsches Historisches Museum (DHM), German Historical Museum, uses this photo [3] in its online article about Gregor Strasser [4].

According to the very strict German copyright laws (which refuse the public domain-term of the US law) it is not possible to use this photo in the German Wikipedia. But I really don't know whether the online use of this picture is forbidden or allowed according US laws. --Bogart99 08:56, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
