    Do records of this event between Ciano and Ribbentrop exist? Photographs? Written description of activities and participants? The Germans were active record keepers. I expect documentation exists somewhere. Where might I find more information?

    Thank you.

    Ciano´s diaries also have some on this.

    " May 22, 1939. The German Reich and Italy committed themselves to military cooperation and mutual support in case of war in the ‘Pact of Steel’. Goering has ‘tears in his eyes’ when he see that Ribbentrop has around his neck the ‘Collar of the Annunziata’, a diplomatic honour awarded by the Italians...."

    Germany and Italy sign the "Pact of Steel"
