Guess Who's Coming To Dinner: Chanukah In Germany Circa 1930

I found this picture of my father (right) and my uncle playing dreidel in their hometown of Mannheim.

It's nice to see that even though the war robbed them of a lot, they did have some semblance of a childhood before the horrors took over.
