The Chinese embassy has reached out to him apparently, he specified it won’t be going to a private collector and definitely not to the Japanese government
His Twitter where he posted some of the pictures. Again CW, horrific atrocities. And I imagine those are some of the less bad ones
fucking idiots in the comments "give it to the smithsonian" as if the Chinese govt shouldn't have first dibs on this. He should be driving to the nearest Chinese embassy, right now
The Chinese embassy has been in contact with him, and apparently so has a museum in Nanjing. I hope that’s where it ends up going.
someone else on his twitter feed is claiming that it's a fake, that the album is one that was sold with photos like that in it, idk tho I don't know enough to tell either way
They make a compelling argument, presumably this is something a museum curator has the expertise to definitively figure out though.
Huh honestly not surprised that sailors enjoyed buying these types of souvenirs given that quite a few pacific theater vets defleshed Japanese skulls.
This shit is so fucking weird lmao
"I'll give you $100 for the photo of the dead family!"
