Courtesy of Rich Flint on Twitter (@richflintphoto) is this link to a wonderful photo essay shot by Karlheinz Jardner in 1990:

I'm fascinated by former Communist block goings on so it's right up my street, but there are some wonderful images here that I think a lot of you will enjoy. The link above is to the article itself. For a direct link to the gallery go here

Thanks for posting the link to this excellent photo essay, Ed
There is a very good book about East German photographers called "Caught- The Art of Photography in the German Democratic Republic" by Karl Gernot Kuehn (University of California Press, 1997)
This is worth a look, too:

You're not alone... I can't believe some people actually fix things like that...
