What's Wrong With This Picture?




From http://www.historyplace.com/: "Nazi storm troopers block the entrance to a Jewish-owned store in Berlin. Their signs read: 'Germans, defend yourselves against the Jewish atrocity propaganda, buy only at German shops!' and, 'Germans, defend yourselves, buy only at German shops!"




What's wrong with this picture? 



 Answer: The picture is clearly doctored. The sign to the right has font that appears to be uniform is size despite the fact that the Nazi "storm trooper" is holding the sign at an angle. The right side of the sign is closer to the viewer, yet the letters appear uniform in size which suggests that the words were added to the sign sometime after the picture was taken. The sign to the left appears to be hovering in mid air. It is neither attached to the gate nor is it being held by anyone. Lastly, there was apparently a significant segment of the German population that consisted of English speaking immigrants as the sign to the left is in German and English.
