PROPAGANDA TRICKERY. —Issued by the Nazis as an example of the prowess and efficiency of their air force, this picture of Liverpool and the Mersey now turns out to be a propaganda “fake." The spot ringed in white toward the top of the picture is a site which was cleared and rebuilt 12 months before the war started, and the picture was probably taken from the airship Graf Zeppelin when it flew low over the city early in 1938.
