Original Caption

"'Unbelievable,' I thought to myself when I saw the first advertising pillars for the Halberstadt election. It was still possible to make out 'May Day 1946' on the posters. German orderliness had no doubt served to safeguard them; they had survived decades without probably ever being used again following the one time in 1946 - free elections were abolished after that."
