637 Photo Identification

3/16/2003 Can someone try to identify the man on the left of the image? The photo was taken in the summer or early fall of 1956 in Legnica or Wroclaw, Poland. The man, a smoker,  was about 45+ years at the time. There is a strong possibility that he was not Jewish. The woman's name is Cyla. View the post, there are no responses
