ETTORE BASTICO
(1876 - 1972) Italian military officer before and during World War II, commandant of the Jado concentration camp, in Libya. In 1942, about 2,000 Jews and other 'undesirables' were rounded up throughout Libya and sent to the Jadu camp where 564 died from typhus and other privations. S.P., 5 x 7.25 in. glossy b/w, a press photograph showing a chest-up view of Bastico in uniform, signed at lower-left in blue ink. Press stamp and remnants of press label present on the verso. Very good.
