In 19~+t~ the boundaries between Polanci and Czechoslovakia were marked by concrete markers
about two and one-half feet high. Ilse Polish side was marked Poland and the Czechoslovak
side was labeled Czechoslovakia. In Southern Poland it was understood that the high hills
were the boundaries between the two countries. I can recall no special markings or
boundary lines, particularly around Jelerda Gora near Hierberg apparently Hierberg :is the
former German city of Hirschberg in f;chlesie~. Soldiers (guards) were used on the roads
between the two countries. Barriers which were placed across these roads could be raised
and lowered to permit or deter vehicular traffic from eros~sing to either country.
LAvailable for inspection and selection at the Graphics Register is a photographic print
of the Polish Border in 1g3gJ
