German POW art from Castlerankine Camp No. 64

This is art from the camp at Castlerankine, Denny, Falkirk (Stirlingshire pre 1974). Herr Otto Laub, who was an inmate from 1946-47, drew typical German scenes on the walls in the camp assembly room. There were originally 25, but only 15 survived to be rescued by local archaeologists before the camp's demolition in 1993.
They're now on permanent display in the Smith Art Gallery & Museum in Stirling.
