In some cases a reserve may be higher than that, but it will never be higher than the estimate. We have made every effort to make the estimates real- istic and conservative. In addition no bids on coins and medals of precious metal lots will be accepted that are below the melt value of the item. For our auction purposes we are defining precious metals as being of silver, gold, platinum or palladium. The price of gold as we write this is $1500 per troy ounce and silver is more than $37 per troy ounce. As you may be well aware, the markets are in a state of turmoil and these prices will probably be different when you read this and then again different when the sale closes. If viewing the catalog online is sufficient for you, please let us know so that we can cut down on the number of catalogs that we have printed and mailed out. If you are an active competitive bidder and wish to continue to receive printed catalogs we, of course, are more than happy to continue sending them to you. But please note we will be reducing our mailing list significantly before our next auction.

BIDDING IN OUR AUCTIONS We will stop taking bids after 9:00 PM Mountain time on June 13th, 2011 as soon as our phone and/or Fax stops ringing for 10 minutes. Please do not wait until the last minute and get shut out. In every sale a number of bidders can not get through on the last night. No matter when you call, you cannot be guaranteed to be the last bidder because the sale will extend for at least 10 minutes after your call. But once it is over we will not answer the phone. If time is running late and the phone is busy, I strong- ly suggest sending us an email or a fax with your bid or bids. We suggest you bid above estimate if you want an item as high bids will be reduced. Our bid sheets offer several bidding options that can save you money, opti- mize your bids and see that you get the lots that you really want. If you are unsure of how to use these options, please give us a call and we will be more than happy to explain them to you.

i Please keep in mind that in some cases there may be unpublished reserves set either by the consignor or the cataloger and no bids of less than 60% of estimate are considered. In some cases the reserve is higher than 60% of estimate but in no cases is it more than the estimate. We do not have a call back service, but after placing your bids you may contact us to check on your bids. And we take seri- ously the commitment to reduce bids. We do not reveal the high bid of any lot, but if you have placed a bid on a lot, you may contact us after your bid has been placed and we will tell you if you are the high bidder. Usually well over 1/3 of all successful bids are reduced and over 75% of successful bidders have at least one of their winning bids reduced. We believe that the best strategy to being a successful bidder is placing your bids early and not waiting until the last minute. And because we reduce the high bid to no more than 10% over the 2nd high bid whenever possible we think it makes sense to send in your bid early with the con- fidence that your bid will be reduced if at all possible. It’s a successful auction when everybody is satisfied with the results; the consignors, the bidders and the auctioneer.

NO BUYER'S FEE There has been quite a bit of discussion lately about companies that charge what some say are excessive buyer’s fees. We do notcharge any buyer's fees in our sales. You are charged only for the amount of your winning bid plus postage and shipping charges. If you want the convenience of using your credit card or sending us a bank wire we do charge you a small fee to help cover our costs.

LOT VIEWING SCHEDULE AURORA COIN SHOW Red Lion Inn. 3200 South Parker Rd. I-225 and Parker Road. Saturday June 4. 9 to 4 PM We will have most lots in the sale available for viewing at our bourse table during the show. However we will not be bringing bulky, heavy or cumbersome lots. If there is something you would like us to bring please let us know and we will make every effort to bring it. We may bring some material with us at the Friday June 3rd DAWN meeting. We plan to have the majority of the material in the sale in our office Monday through Friday until the close of the sale if you need more detailed description of any of the lots. However, please contact us as well in advance of the close of the sale as possible in order that we can provide you with as much information as we can. We will be happy to return your call if we cannot provide you with the information you require when you call, fax or email. We may be out of town May 29th through June 2nd. We w i l l confirmall email bidsreceived within 24 hours of receiving the bid. If you do not receive a confirmation please contact us. We have been deluged by spam as I’m sure many of you have also, thus we ask that when sending us a bid or inquiring about the sale, please put “Bids” or “Mailbid Sale” or “Auction” in the subject line so we do not delete your email along with the junk we receive every day. We do not confirm mail or fax bids unless specifically asked to do so. Please write clearly on your bid sheet. If possible in addition to the lot # and your maximum bid a small description is most helpful. No information will be available about the results of the sale until all bids have been checked and invoices written. This should take 3 or 4 days. We will not be answering the phone until that information is ready. We hope to have the phones open by Friday June 17th. Please note that this entire catalog is also up on our website or will be shortly. Our website address is rosenblumcoins.com. There you will find not only everything in this catalog, but also color images of all lots pictured. If the images are not up on our site when you receive this catalog they should be soon.

LOTS 752-773 HOLOCAUST MEMORABILIA . .LOTS 774-787 HIGHLIGHTS OF AUCTION 41E We usually have a gold coin section in our auctions but we have so few gold coins to offer the few gold coins are interspersed with the regular coins. The gold coins and medals are 152-153, 195, 248, 268-271, 348-349, 368, 421, 503 and 653. Our auction starts off with 18 lots of Odd & Curious Money consisting mainly of African items from the collection and inventory of the late Mark Bir of Tucson, Arizona. Mark, who passed away in May of 2009, was a coin dealer who specialized in Latin American material among other world coins. He also shared our love of Odd and Curious Money especially from Africa. Odd and Curious Money is also known by various other names including Traditional Money, Primitive Money and that “strange” stuff. We follow that with a selection of books from the David H. Donald library. Included in this offering is almost complete runs of the Krause-Mishler Standard Catalog of World Coins and Richard Yeoman’s Modern Coins of the World more commonly known as the Brown. Among other authors represented are John Davenport, Frank Draskovic, Stuart Rubenfeld, William Craig, Gunther Kienast (both volumes of his Karl Goetz Opus), Frank Robinson, Bill Spengler, Wayne Sayles and David Vice. As usual our Ancient Jewish coinage section is the highlight of our ancient offerings. We begin with a number of small silver coins including rare Yehud coins. Other Judaen coins of interest include a high grade Antipas coin (or at least one side is high grade), two rare coins of Agrippa I, a rare Agrippa II pre-royal coin with a portrait of Claudius, a Year Two Shekel of the Jewish War and a Bar Kochba Revolt Middle bronze overstruck on a coin of Ascalon with part of Trajan’s head visible. This section concludes with numerous high grade and/or rare city coins. Our other ancient coin sections are smaller than usual but contain a number of better and/or interesting coins. Among those is a very high grade “Jerusalem” type Shekel of Tyre, a high grade 1/2 Shekel of Tyre and a late and rare date Shekel which was first published in the late 1990’s and is only the 2nd that we are aware of. Our offering of Roman woman continues highlighted by a Sestertius of Orbiana and the ancients con- clude with a gold Solidus of Heraclius and an Arab-Byzantine coin of Jerusalem. Our world coin section is large and diverse leading off with 25 Chop-marked crowns of the world from the David Donald collection. Chop-marks are indentations made in coins to attest to their weight, silver content and/or their legality. These were usually done by private merchants and once chopped they would circulate freely. David was a dedicated collector of these and somewhere in the collection there should be some correspondence he had with other chop-mark collectors including the Chop Mark Collectors Club (?) which I believe was the brain-child of a Frank Rose. Some collectors love chop-marked coins, the more the merrier, other collectors would rather have a coin with only a handful of clear and distinct chops and still others don’t like them at all.

iii Continuing on in the world coin section we run across a number of scarce Australian (and later New Zealand) merchant tokens from the middle of the 19th century, the popular 1900 400th Anniversary of the Discovery of Brazil 4 piece silver set, the elusive 1973 Prince Edward Island centennial commemorative medal set and a Central American Republic Crown. Next comes China and we are offering silver crowns, a large cast coin, gold coins from the People’s Republic as well as 10 silver “Fantasies”. None of these Chinese coins are of recent manufacture, all have been in this country for many years. Other lots of more than passing interest are two Karl Goetz medals, a long run of Westphalian notgeld including the very scarce large size Billion Mark piece, numerous better coins from Greece and Greenland, Guatemalan 5 & 10 Quetzales gold coins and perhaps the strongest offering of privately made Israel mint and presentation sets ever. Certainly the strongest we’ve offered in our 40 years in business! Also up for sale are numerous Italian coins including a nice run of medieval coins (including a rare coin of Gaeta) as well a few better crowns, a type set of Wilhelmina of the Netherlands gold coins, Palestine coins and tokens, 16th to 18th century Polish coins, Russian, Swiss and Tibetan coins. In our 80+ lots of world paper you will run across a group of 5 Konversionkasse notes with consecutive serial numbers, a number of Konversionkasse bonds, a rare 1955 Bank of Israel Specimen Set and an equally rare lot of “Progressive Proofs” of the 1958 10 Lirot. Also of note in the Israel paper section are numerous lots of consecutively numbered notes from the 1955 and especially the 1958 series as well as two error notes. Other highlights in this section include a few rare Nicaraguan notes, 4 Palestine Currency Board issues and a United States, Continental Currency 8 dollar note.. Our Judaic and Holy Land section contains a little over 200 lots of diverse and interesting material. Among the highlights are numerous Biblically related European Jetons from the 16th and 17th centuries, a run of better False or Gorlitz Shekels some of which are unlisted. Other pieces include a rare mid-19th century European token from Matzeldorf, medals of the chief Rabbis of Belgium, Copenhagen and Budapest, a heretofore unknown (at least to this cataloger) circa 1900 Charity token, a rare 1933 plaque in the form of a Jewish Star of Theodore Herzl, a handful of Jewish related South-American items and other assorted medals and tokens including some honoring such diverse personalities as Elie Wiesel, George Burns and Jacques Schulman. The section of medals devoted to the issues of the state of Israel including a pattern or two, a few better silver medals including the rare 12 Tribes of Israel set by Salvador Dali and others either singularly or in a group. In addition there are a number of rare “Commissioned” medals including a plain edge B’nai B’rith piece, 2 Pablo Casals medals in different metals, two rare Shavit Till medals one of which we can not recall seeing, a rare Israel Bonds medals presented by Yiizhak Rabin during his 1st stint as Prime Minister, an extremely rare Yad Vashem medal as well as Prime Minister’s medal from Golda Meir in French! Our miscellaneous paper section is unfortunately small as our deadline arrived too quickly. However there are a number of interesting certificates, tokens and other documents. Of particular note is a tri-lingual illustrated 1957 book titled The History of the Israel Armed Forces in Hebrew, English and French. The Holocaust Memorabilia contains a small group of notgeld consisting mainly of notes we’ve never offered or rare pieces. Also offered is a work card and other documents from the Buczacz Ghetto a town in Galicia which has been variously a part of the Austrian-Hungarian empire, Poland, Russia and Nazi Germany. And all that in the 20th century. It is located in what is now the Ukraine Republic. We’ve never had an item from there. Also in this section are Nazi issued passports from the mother, grandmother and great-grandmother of noted numismatist Frank Robinson and the sale closes with two books published in Poland just after the completion of the war, one with first-hand accounts of the atrocities of the Holocaust, the other documenting the paperwork of the Nazis.

Minted at Caesarea Paneas, this is one of the great rarities of Jewish coinage.

Laureate bust of Domitian right/Nike standing right, foot on helmet, writing on shield resting on her knee. Year 29. Hen-1294 (627), AJC- 48v. VF. There is disagreement as to when the dating of Agrippa II coins start. In GBC-5 Hendin dates this coin to 77/78. Most other references date this coin to 89/90. $375+ *74 AGRIPPA II. 56-95 CE.

Æ Prutah (16mm, 2.48g). 3 line legend in wreath/Palm branch in center, legend and date (year 4) around. H-1338 (645), TJC-327v. Struck twice on each side with obverse and reverse image on both sides.

Nice well centered Fine. Purchased before 1967 from L. N. Ohan when the old city of Jerusalem was in Jordan. $75+? *78 PONTIUS PILATE, Procurator under Tiberius. 26-36 AD. Æ Prutah (15mm, 1.49g). LIZ within wreath, written with the L looking like a Gamma and the Z like an S/Lituus within legend. Hen-1341v, somewhat similar to Fontanille-72 but for the retrograde letters. Perhaps unpublished. Certainly rare. Fine. $175+? *79 PONTIUS PILATE, Procurator under Tiberius. 16-26 AD. Æ Prutah (1.94g). LIH within wreath/Lituus. Hen-1343 (650), AJC-24av, TJC-334av. Fine, bit o.c. Seems to be an unpublished date side. The L and I are very small compared to the H and the I is very close to the H but distinct and separated. $75+ *80 ANTONIUS FELIX, Procurator under Claudius. 52-59 AD. Æ Prutah Æ17 (2.64g). A brockage and rare as such. Two oblong shields and two spears crossed/Incuse of obverse. H-1348d (652v), TJC-341d, AJC-31a. VF.

Ch VF.$135 *82 FIRST REVOLT (Jewish War). 66-70 AD (Year 2). AR Shekel (13.91g). Omer Cup, “Shekel of Israel, Year Two”./Three Pomegranates on stem, “Jerusalem the Holy”. H-1358 (659), AJC-8, TJC-193. VF/EF, obverse just a tad porous, but still a very appealing and attractive coin. Becoming increasingly difficult to find. $4000+ *83 FIRST REVOLT (Jewish War). 66-70 AD. Year One Half Shekel (6.98g). BRITISH MUSEUM ELECTRO-TYPE COPY. Chalice/3 Pomegranates. Small “13” punched below the pomegranates. As Hen-1355. Toned VF.

Purchased from Lea Brown of Edinburgh,8/31/33. While the edge is not stamped, the incuse punch should be proof enough that this is not a genuine coin. $100+? *84 FIRST REVOLT. (Jewish War). 66-70. AD Year Four Shekel (11.87g). BRITISH MUSE- UM ELECTRO-TYPE COPY. Chalice/3 Pomegranates. Small “13” punched below the pomegranates. As Hen-1364. Toned VF.

While the edge is not stamped, the incuse punch, the light weight and some casting bubbles should be proof enough that this is not a genuine coin. $100+?

This coin has been overstruck over a coin of Ascalon (?) with the forehead, eyes and nose of Trajan clearly visible on the obverse.

14 *217 CHOPMARKED CROWN. Japan. Meiji 29 (1896) 1 Yen. Y-A25. Perhaps 15 chop marks on reverse, most of them clear but a number in the center run together. For wear the coin is VF, but the preponderance of chops in the center of the reverse made the coin cup in the center of the obverse thus creating an allusion of wear. $50+ *218 CHOPMARKED CROWN.

Y-11, KM-82. 2 chops marks obverse, 1 or 2 on the reverse as well. Chop marks on European coins (with the exception of Trade Dollars made for trade in the east) are much scarcer than on Asian coins. This is a very late date for European chop marked crown. $75+ *226 CHOPMARKED CROWN. Philippines, Alfonso XIII of Spain. 1897 Peso. Y-13, KM- 154. 1 intricate chop mark on each side.

IGM within wreath/ Koph, Mem, Dalat in wreath. From Matzeldorf in Austria-Hungary. Israelitische Gemeinde Mattersdorf. Most likely a Shehitah token (Kosher butcher). Neumann-166, Weilh-1341. VF and scarce. We have had a few of these in the past, but none in the last 16+ years! Neumann was published in 1858, thus this token precedes that publication. $100+ *600 DR. HENRI LOEB. 1859 Silver 59mm by Leopold Weiner. His bust left/Hebrew legend within wreath, all within French legend. Struck to commemorate his 25th anniversary as Grand Rabbi of Belgium and done by one of the 19th Century’s most important medallic sculptors (who also happened to be Jewish). JMM-52, Belgium Jewish Museum BM-12 (page 33), PEM-3, One of the rarest and most important of 19th century Jewish medals. As a side note the sculptor’s brother Charles executed a medal for Loeb’s successor, Elie- Aristide Astruc, in 1880. This was in our last sale but unfortunately we described it as silver rather than silvered. Still extremely rare and desirable. $300+ *601 FALSE SHEKEL ND. 19th Century? Silver or Silvered (31.5mm, 11.36g). As Kisch B- 7. Nice toned VF. $40+? *602 FALSE SHEKEL Brass 33mm (8.50g). Kisch Type D with a two-handed smoking urn rather than a chalice. The base of the urn has a flat bottom with vertical grooves and above that the urn has more vertical grooves, a horizontal line and two rows of pearls or circles divided by a horizontal line. Similar to Lapa 24 but his example is heavier and struck (so he says). This is probably cast. Neither Lapa’s picture or the ones in Kisch are clear. $40+? *603 FALSE SHEKEL Brass 35mm (18.11g). Kisch B34. Sharply struck with typical die break on chalice and a large dot separating the cup of the chalice from its base. On this type the “Shins” have a very flat base. Choice EF, with a few stains. We’ve offered this type before but I can’t recall seeing it in brass. This type, like B35, is thought to have been struck in the United States. $50? *604 FALSE SHEKEL Silver 34mm (11.32g). Unusual struck type, the chalice being long and conical with grooves in the cup. The field is granulated and the obverse lettering somewhat similar to B34 with the “shins” having sharp bottoms. But all letters (except for the “Koph”) on the obverse seem to have an extra edge almost like they have been double struck, although I don’t think so. The reverse is also somewhat similar to B34 but the letters are crudely shaped, although sharply struck, and some exhibit the “doubling” seen on the obverse. However, the branches and leaves are thinner than B34. Unlisted in either Kisch or Lapa. $75+? *605 FALSE SHEKEL Silvered bronze (?) 32mm (11.04g). A most unusual looking piece with numerous odd-shaped letters. For instance on the obverse the two lameds are entirely different, neither one being correct. Rough fields on both sides, but the edge is sharp. I cannot recall seeing this piece before and it is not pictured in either Kisch or Lapa. $50? *606 FALSE SHEKEL WM 34mm (10.89g). Somewhat similar to Kisch B8 but enough dif- ferences for it to be a different type which I believe is unlisted. For instance the “shins” have very pronounced serifs. Struck. EF. $40+? *607 UNUSUAL DATED FALSE SHEKEL ND. Silver 37mm (16.96g). Legend around Amphora, date (year two)/Legend around ornate branches. Somewhat similar to Kisch, Plate I, #5 and F1 as this is dated as are the two in Kisch. Fine and no doubt rare. $150+?

35 *608 SAMSON OBERNDOEFFER. 1861. White Metal 41mm by Drentwett. Bust left/ Legend. Struck to commemorate his 70th birthday. He was a Jewish coin dealer in Germany in the 19th century.

His bust left/3-line Hebrew quote from Psalms, 40:10, ”I preached righteousness in the great congregation; I have not restrained my lips, O Lord, Thou knowest.” German legend above, palm branches below. Struck to commemorate the famed Rabbi’s 70th birthday. Mannheimer was born in Copenhagen, but spent most of his years as one of Vienna’s leading Rabbis. PEM-9. EF, some marks in the field. See The Shekel Vol. 29, 5, 28-29. Rare. A specimen, not as nice, sold for $550 (+15% buyer’s fee) in a Stack’s sale in December of 2009. $350+ *610 SOUTH AMERICAN JEWISH TOKEN. Colombia. I. E. Rubinstein & Son. ND. 5 Cent CN Token. I. E. Rubinstein & Son -R. C. San Andres/Vale 5 Cents.. Rare Jewish South- American item. Rulau SAP-12, Bernal-22. aF, corrosion. We’ve had this piece a few times before and they have all sold between $300 and $400. This a little bit of a lower grade than the one that sold for $400 $200+ *611 TALMUD TORAH AND SYNAGOGUE MEDAL. ND (1890’s?). AHAVAT SHALOM in the Bronx. BRASS 33mm. The School Building with legend around/Scroll, Magen David above, legend all around. Choice AU. Scarce. We’ve had a few of these over the years and they’ve consistently brought $100-$150. $100+ *612 DR. ADOLPH FISCHOF. 1894 Bronze 56.5 mm by Franz Xaver Pawlik. His bust facing slightly to the left/Allegorical scene in front of his statue. Fischoff was an Austrian Jewish physician and one of the leaders of the 1848 revolt in Austria. This scarce medal was struck after his death. Except for a few areas of discoloration, virtually as struck. Very rare.$350+ *613 SIEGEL-COOPER CO. COMMEMORATIVE SOAP DISH. 1898.

Heine seated right, hands in lap, name below, 1799-1856 to right/Woman holding wreath, 5-line German legend. This medal comes in various sizes but this is only the 2nd time I can recall seeing it this size and the first silvered version.

With Yiizhak Rabin’s signature as Prime Minister and presented to Our Zab An. These medals are presented to those who have been extraordinarily successful in the selling of Israel Bonds. While no mintage figures are known, they are rare and much in demand. I have no record of ever offering this medal with Rabin’s signature before. There are more well known, although still scarce, medals with signatures of Golda Meir and Levi Eshkol. These are the only 3 Prime Minister’s that we can recall that signed these medals, thus we can assume that this was issued in the 1970’s during Rabin’s first stint as Prime Minister rather than the one in the 1990’s which ended in his assassina- tion. The IGCMC Catalogue #1 says that there are medals bearing Begin’s signature, however this cataloguer has never seen those. With loop, as usual with named medals. As issued but for a few minor marks. Very rare. $400+

Extremely rare. Only the 2nd Copper-Nickel example we’ve offered in the past 16+ years! The last example sold for $700 on a $600 estimate. As issued save for a few “chattermarks” at about 7 o’clock on th reverse. We assume this is Copper-Nickel.

THE HOLOCAUST AND ANTI-SEMITISM

There are a number of lots in other sections of this catalog that could just as easily been listed in this section. Among those lots are: 356, 457-460, 509-510, 512-518, 569, 578, 584, 630, 634-635, 673, 675-676, 684 and 754.

Why do people collect this stuff? Obviously people collect for different reasons, but most people seem to collect these items as teaching tools for use at home, in schools, synagogues and churches. Many people donate them to national or local museums. There are people who deny the existence or magnitude of the Holocaust. These items are a weapon against them.

*774 ANTI-SEMITIC NOTGELD. Bremen. 1921 2 Mark. Issued on German Day, this note is known as the Elders of Zion and features 5 Jewish businessmen sitting around a table, “conspiring to gain control of global economics”. As made, but for pinhole and associated very small tear on right edge. One of the scarcer of all German anti-semitic notgeld pieces. See The Shekel Vol. XVIII, #4, page 21. 1st we’ve offered in 4+ years. $150+ *775 ANTI-SEMITIC NOTGELD. Beverungen. Group of 3, each with a different color on back. Brown, green and blue. 75 Pfennig. Depicts anti-Semitic scene in dental office. See The Shekel Vol. XVIII, #4 pages 22-27. Unc. I’ve never ever had 3 varieties before! $60+ *776 ANTI-SEMITIC NOTGELD. Lemgo. 1921 10,25 and 50 Pfennig notes. The 50 Pfennig depcits a soldier at right reading from proclamation which refers to Jews and Christ. Scarce. We’ve only offered the 50 Pfennig note a few times and have never offered a complete set. $75+? *777 ANTI-SEMITIC NOTGELD. Lichtenstein-Callnberg 1921. Set of five 50 Pfennig notes, most with stereotypical images of a Jew with a Devil. Basically uncirculated and scarce. 1st we’ve seen. $60+? *778 ANTI-SEMITIC NOTGELD. Neurippin. 25 Pfenning 1921. Anti-Semitic notgeld. A Jewish “dandy” in front of “Loeser & Wolff” being told by a policeman, “”Stop, you must separate”. Loeser & Wolff was one of the largest cigar stores in Germany after WWI and both partners were Jewish. Why would the policeman tell one person to separate? Perhaps he meant you must leave. Or perhaps because he was overweight. Very colorful note. When the Nazis came to power in the 1930s Loeser & Wolff was aryanized. Au-Unc. $40+ *779 ROTHSCHILD NOTGELD. 25 Pfennig 1921.”Stage Coach” in front of house, entitled Nagelschmied Rotschild. The Bildarchiv Foto Marburg, with approx. 1.7 million images, is one of the largest image archives on European art and architecture and has cataloged this piece under” Anti-Semitism” and ”enmity between the races.” However I don’t think it belongs in that category. Unc. $25+? *780 ANTI-SEMITIC NOTGELD. Sternberg. 1922. The infamous set of 3 notes, which depicts the supposed destruction of the Holy Wafer by Jews. Unc. See The Shekel Vol XVII #4 (an error on the cover says Vol XVIII, this is July-August 1984). $75+

49 *781 NUMISMATICALLY RELATED HOLOCAUST ERA NAZI PASSPORTS. 1935-1941. Great-grandmother, grandmother and mother of Frank Robinson, the well known numismatist and author from Albany, NY. 1) Lotte Dreyfuss, Frank’s mother. Issued 8 April 1935 at Nürnberg-Fürth. Various hand-stamps and adhesives as she traveled through Belgium, France, Switzerland and England where she was allowed to enter for short periods of time but could not be employed (either paid or unpaid). Finally on 14 May 1938 her passport has a US Immigration Visa hand-stamp. Loose covers. 2) Else Dreyfuss (born Theilheimer) Lotte’s mother. Issued 17 March 1938 also at Nürnberg-Fürth. Within a few months or so she traveled to the US via France and the UK. 3) Rosa “Sara” Theilheimer born Stern. Issued 18 February 1941 also at Nürnberg-Fürth. By this time the Nazi passports for Jews had a large red “J” on the first page and “Sara” had been added to the name of all Jewish females (and Israel for men). Mrs. Theilheimer traveled to the US via Spain and Portugal and most likely was granted immigration status to the US because her daughter and granddaughter were already there. An interesting saga of 3 generations of women who were able to travel to the US and freedom. See Lot #41 for a book by Frank Robinson. $100+ *782 ANTI-SEMITIC PROPAGANDA LABEL. Before January 1940. #46 of this series which was an official issue of the Nazi Party. “Den Juden Hore Belisha” referring to Isaac Leslie Hore-Belisa, a Jewish member of Parliament and Secretary of State for War under Neville Chamberlain from May 28, 1937 until January 5, 1940. He was forced to resign because of his actions in modernizing the British Army were bitterly resented and the attacks against him were nastily anti-Semitic. Unc., slight signs of aging. $50+ *783 ANTI-SEMITIC STICKER. ND. Hamburg. c 2 1/2 x 1 1/2”, small tan thin paper with gummed back.

With signature and postal hand-stamp and printed notation that no messages were permitted to recipients. I can’t recall offering this before. Unlisted in Simon! $50+? *785 BUCZACZ (BUCHACH) GHETTO WORK CARD. 1941. Buczacz, spelled in various ways, including Buchach, was a town south of Lwow in Galicia, and part of the Austria- Hungarian empire in the early part of the 20th century, before the Poles, the Russians and the Nazis took their turns. It is now known as Buchach in present day Ukraine. It was the birthplace of the famed Nobel Prize winning author S. Y. Agnon (see Lots 746 & 785). This is the first item that I can recall from The Buczacz Ghetto.

A Melkekarte für Juden (literally a registration card) for Wolf Rinder. c. 16 x 7 1/4” pink cardboard, folded to make it c. 7.5 x 4”. The card was issued to Rinder, who was born in January of 1913, in 1941 by the Tarnopol Labor Office/Buczacz Branch. Printed in German, Polish and Russian by the Warsaw State Printer. It features his personal details, his photo and a Nazi hand-stamp on the front and the signature of the commanding officer under a 9-line paragraph giving the guidelines for Jewish employment. The holders of such cards (known as Shein) were considered “lucky” because the work at a Nazi plant was better than the alternative, usually a trip to the Death Camps. The inner pages of the card reveal Rinder’s working history. From September 1941 until October of 1942 he worked for the city of Monasterzyska, about 15 km away, as an “unreplaceable assistant”. On November 1st 1942 he began work in Buczacz as a “Sanitary”? That may have been something like a garbage man. Two of the inner pages have 7-paragraph instructions and regulations for the cardhold- ers in Polish, Russian and German which Rinder signed.

The Buczacz Ghetto was founded in late 1942 without walls but with numerous restrictions on where Jews could and could not walk. There was also a Jüdenlager (or closed camp) nearby. Thousands of Jews were murdered in 5 Aktions between 1941 and 1943. Two additional documents shed more light on the suffering and misery Rinder went through. One is a pass issued in April of 1943 which allowed Rinder to be outside the Jüdenlager until 19:30 hours. The other is an officially signed and hand-stamped Passierschein (travel pass) dated

50 31 May 1943 allowing him and his belongings to travel to Kopichintza. In July 1943 Buczacz was declared “Judenrein”. Just a few hundred survived, Rinder among them. 3 items, the card in decent but aged condition, the two other items on very thin paper and well used. Extremely rare. A story of one man’s survival. For more information about Buczacz see http://www.jewishgen.org/yizkor/buchach/buchach.html# $1000+ *786 DOCUMENTS: CRIMES AND MARTYRDOM. 1945. 214 page cardcover book in Polish with first hand accounts of the atrocities of the Holocaust from (presumably) survivors. Cover depicts a drawing of two huddled figures covering their faces and weeping. No doubt one of the earliest accounts of what went on in Europe during the 1st half of the 1940s. $40+? *787 DOCUMENTS AND MATERIALS. To the Acts of the German occupation of Poland. Volume III. Lodz Ghetto. Part I. by A. M. Eisenbach. Published 1946 in Warsaw, Lodz and Krakow. 300 page cardcover account in Polish and German documenting the official German paperwork of the Nazis.
