Overview

Sheets of portrait photos of the Frank family

48 different portrait photos

In April 1935, Polyfoto opened a shop in Amsterdam’s city centre. For 1 guilder, you could have a sheet made with 48 different portrait photos.

The Frank family went there to have their pictures taken. Photo sheets of all four family members have survived. Several photos were cut from the photo sheet of the 13-year-old Margot. One of these is in the photo album that Anne compiled when they were in hiding.
