Acquisition

Documents were discovered by Grete Mares among her personal papers. Because some were addressed to her mother, Berta Rosenzweig, during the Holocaust, Ms. Mares removed them for donation to United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. No information on the creators of the materials is available to United States Holocaust Memorial Museum Archives.

Scope and Content

Consists of six postcards to and from various persons in a "Jewish camp." One blank savings book, which at one time belonged to Berta Rosenzweig. Four telegrams from Topalcany, Czechoslovakia. One entry pass for Theresienstadt.
