　　侵华日军南京屠城又添“铁证”：参战日军拍下民国首都机场尸横遍野

　　中新网南京5月18日电  (记者 申冉)馆长刷微博刷出罕见老照片史料，私信、电话、上门恳求，终于打动了收藏者愿意慷慨捐出，让这批珍贵的历史资料成为侵华日军南京大屠杀的又一“铁证”。18日，北京影像资料收藏家王旭，正式向侵华日军南京大屠杀遇难同胞纪念馆(下文简称江东门纪念馆)捐赠了这份影像资料、由参战日军拍摄的《北支派遣纪念》原版照片集，其中留下了民国首都机场内遇难者尸横遍野的惨烈景象。

　　据捐赠人王旭介绍，这本相册是其在寻找日军侵占定州(王旭先生的家乡)时期影像中意外找到的，“应该是一位收藏者在日本的旧货市场上购买的，辗转之后，又被我买下。”

　　而这本相册又在机缘巧合中来到了南京江东门纪念馆。纪念馆馆长张建军回忆了“发现”这本相册的那天晚上，“是今年三月底的时候，晚上在家休息的时候，习惯地在微博上看看有没有跟南京大屠杀相关的文物史料，谁知道正好看到王旭先生发的几张黑白老照片。我看了很惊讶，这照片很特别。”

　　张建军告诉记者，当时他就以“江东门纪念馆工作人员”的身份，向王旭发了私信，希望能够跟他联系，经过几次私信和电话联系，王旭由于不清楚“江东门纪念馆”的“大名”，所以还辗转进行了解。

　　在了解到纪念馆确有其名之后，张建军带领工作人员远赴北京、直接找上了门，“当时看到照片，我就跟王旭先生说，这份史料对于纪念馆意义重大，不知道能否捐赠给我们。王旭先生也很感动，当场就同意了。”

　　记者现场翻阅了这本得来不易的相册，这是一本装桢考究的相册，封皮为皮革压制战场图案底纹，右上标注有“北支派遣纪念”，右下为相册主人的名字“腾岛泰男”，相册内的衬纸为黑色棉纸。从相集的封面签名可以得知，这是一本日本侵华士兵的相册。

　　相册的前几页粘贴的是攻陷城市的纪念邮戳，后面是装裱在衬纸上的一百多张2-8寸黑白银盐照片。尽管已经过去七十多年，但这批原版的黑白照片影像非常清晰，画面的细节丝毫未损，只有照片中的暗部隐隐泛起的银光，告诉人们它的悠久历史，非常难得。

　　据王旭的研究，银盐照片经过严格的印放、充分的定影和水洗以后，经历100年不会发生太大变化。照片集中的衬纸和当时的相纸都是纯木浆制作而成，干燥透气、无酸、延展收缩一致，对这些珍贵的照片起到了保护作用。“所以几乎没有散落、泛色或发霉的情况，保存的非常好。”

　　江苏省社会科学院历史研究所所长王卫星对照片集进行了评析考证。他告诉记者，在相册的前几页就有四五张都是在南京拍摄的，“可以非常清晰地辨认出是日军在南京哪些地方进行的大规模屠杀。包括城墙附近的城郊、扬子江沿岸……尤其珍贵的是，我们首次看到了日军在当时的民国机场、南京大校场进行屠杀后的惨烈场面，照片中的尸体堆积如山，这是极为少见的影像史料。”

　　慷慨捐赠了这批珍贵的老照片史料，对于摄影爱好者王旭来说，尽管颇有些舍不得，“但希望这能为我们中华民族铭记那段历史，提供一份铁证。”

　　此外，他也呼吁，国内的各级各类博物馆应重视原版底片、照片的保护和收集工作。“中国近百年的沧桑巨变，都浓缩在这相纸和底版上，相比几千年文字和绘画的描述，这种方式更直观，更珍贵。”
