Above: an ordinary map of Europe. Except it wasn't so ordinary to Jennie Kluthe, whose son, Ed, was serving in World War II somewhere in Europe and she had no idea where. She listened to the radio every day and whenever a town, city or village was mentioned as the location of any sort of war activity, she would find that area on the map and put a pin in it.
Below: The same map, after the war, when held up to the light.
