Photocopy of a photograph taken at the Maidenek concentration camp in June 1979, showing one of the disinfection gas chambers thought to be a homicidal gas chamber. Between the two doors with their inspection peep-holes, the darker bricks are of Prussian blue color, a sign of prolonged use of “Blausäure/ blue acid”, in other words, hydrocyanic or prussic acid sold as a delousing agent under the name of “Zyklon-B”. |
