My understanding is that More's widow had an article about the photo albums in a Portland newspaper. According to Brad Meltzer's Lost History, More's widow was visited by a man who claimed to be a writer & wanted to "borrow" the albums for research of his story that planned on making More a "hero". More's widow gave the albums to the visitor - but he was never heard from again. In one of Meltzer's 2014 episodes, he outlined the sequence of events that led to the photo albums that More had snuck out of WWII being stolen.

The correct spelling is Alton More. Their family lived 3 houses down from me in Casper, Wyoming. I saw those photos, shown to me by Alton's son, Ron, when I was in Jr High School. After Alton was killed in a car accident the family moved to Portland, Oregon and I lost track of them after that.

After Alton died, his widow married my dad. I also looked through the album as a teen ager. The album was later sold to a collector who was instramental in creating the book/movie "The Band of Brothers".
