This pic was taken by a friend of mine`s Dad during his trek across Europe with the Canadian Infantry,he apparently carried a camera with him everywhere,subsequently was transfored to headquarters to read photographs.
This is also one of the few survivors from the war. see below.
"Defence Academy of the United Kingdom, Shrivenham, England. Tiger II (production turret) in military collection not normally accessible to the public. This vehicle was from SS s.PzAbt. 501 with turret number 104, and has a comprehensive coating of zimmerit. It was knocked out near Beauvais by Sergeant Roberts of A Squadron, 23rd Hussars. This vehicle is currently on display at Bovington Tank Museum. It is missing its engine."
So as Allied units passed by this beast the cameras started clicking providing you had one with you,very interesting PB! There are a few more shots of this tank as he walked around it coming shortly as I find them.
