The Destruction of the Jew of Poland – Rare Photo Album of the Holocaust of the Jews of Poland – Lodz 1945 – The Central Historical Committee of the Jews of Poland
A photo album published a short while after the Holocaust documenting the destruction of the Polish Jewry since the Nazi occupation until the release. The album includes 252 photographs and an introduction in Polish, French, Yiddish, English and Hebrew.
The photographs document the fate of the Jews of Poland throughout the years of the War: the harassment on the streets, the isolation of the Jews and their move into the ghetto, the difficult life conditions in the ghetto, the actions, the labor and extermination camps, the armed resistance and the release. In addition, the album contains a documentation of the Nazi propaganda which was part of the extermination process, posters of decrees against the Jews and photographs documenting the desecration of the synagogues and ritual articles.
The photographs were taken by German soldiers as souvenirs and were given to developers. Despite it being forbidden, the developers kept copies of the photographs and that is how they reached the hands of the Central Historical Committee of the Jews of Poland.
The Central Historical Committee of the Jews of Poland was founded during the summer of 1944, even before the War had ended and the disaster became clear. Its founders, survivors themselves, saw in researching and documenting the Nazis' deeds a duty imposed on the Surviving Remnants. They collected documents and photographs, listened to testimonies, published diaries and started a historical research about the period.
Condition: Very Good.
