Life

The Ostmolenkopf of Swinoujscie, Dreblow's preferred camera location
The saloon high-speed steamer Hertha in Stettin (1921)

Max Dreblow learned the trade and then followed his older brother to Stettin. He ran a general store on Giesebrechtstrasse there, which he sold in 1903 to move into an apartment near the harbor. From here he began to photograph the ships in the port of Szczecin with a plate camera . Soon his work area extended to the whole area between Stettin and the Baltic Sea, whereby his preferred location was the head of the Swinoujscie Ostmole.

Dreblow sold his image rights to large postcard publishers. He also worked as a press photographer and local reporter for the Stettiner Ostsee-Zeitung . Dreblow died in a traffic accident. The professional photographer Ernst Klett from Szczecin acquired his extensive record archive.
