United States Holocaust Memorial Museum Collection, Gift of Helen Albert

Scope and Content

This book, published in 1946 by the Conference on Jewish Relations, New York, was acquired by the donor's uncle in 1951. According to the donor, her Uncle Herman was a well-read man, who had season tickets to the opera at the Met, and dressed fashionably from stores like Barneys. He came from a family of tailors, worked in a dry goods store, and lived in Austria after the war. All these had an effect on him and he had a distinguished aura despite circumstances that kept him from going futher in life and business.
