Abstract

In October 2011, Mr. Edward Victor, former lawyer and philanthropist, donated to the Los Angeles Museum of the Holocaust his Collection of the Second World War era documents and artifacts. Owing to this generous donation, our Archive acquired highly valuable historic materials. Being multivectorial by content and form, these documents and artifacts mirror various facets of the Holocaust and in a broader sense, they emanate from the war realities.

Mr. Victor’s Papers also include a special collection of postcards and photographs depicting largely bygone synagogues of Europe, Northern Africa and Middle East.

Scope and Contents of the Materials

Ed Victor Papers comprises 58 collections, sub-collections. The latters include a great deal of folders and folder-level collections. All in all this record groups contains around 1800 documents.

Collection Historical Note

Mr. Victor started his collection guided primarily by philatelic interest. He collected letters, envelopes, postcards and other documents bearing a postal stamp or institutional stamps of the respective authorities and agencies. At a certain point, he realizes that the fate of the people, reflected in the short narratives, is of eternal historic value and shall not be measured only in a philatelic dimension. The content of various wartime correspondences reveals a historic enormity of victimization, dehumanization and personal tragedies on one side and a cold blood calmness of perpetrators on the other.

Reading correspondences sent from concentration camps, prisons, ghettos and German labor service open up a microcosm of tragic stories. Other groups of documents, such as official correspondences of National Socialist authorities, inquiries submitted by the relatives of incarcerated people, antisemitic and propaganda materials, rationing coupons also broaden our understanding of the Holocaust and about the structure of the Nazi regime. Ed Victor Papers, as a corpus of wartime documents, historicize the Holocaust in the context of the 20^th century History. They shed light on the earlier, lesser known and often under researched pages of the Holocaust Experience, especially when it comes to the fate of individuals. At a certain point, multiple micro-histories become qualitatively intrinsic to the macro-history of the Holocaust.

Box and Folder Listing

Sub-Collection 8: RG-72.08, Correspondences from and to German labor service, 1940 --1945

German economy widely used foreign labor in industry and agriculture. In the early period of the Second World War, German authorities advertised how advantageous work and life in Germany would be for foreign workers. Later in the war, when German economy experienced a shortage of workforce, German administration in the occupied territories commenced mandatory labor conscriptions. Civilians were called up for labor service in Germany. Forcefully transported to Germany, they would undergo selection process and then distributed to the various industrial enterprises and also private agricultural establishment, as well as for home aid service. At the close of the war, the German labor and economic service under the auspices of the SS, started using prisoners of war and regular prisoners of concentration camps for forced labor in German economy.

This Collection contains correspondences of people who largely volunteered for German labor service, as well as of those who were conscripted to forced labor in Germany. There are also letters sent to laborers from their home countries. Since German labor service was not regarded as incarceration, there was no mandatory German language requirement for this correspondences. There letters written in Polish, Czech, Russian, Ukrainian and other European languages. A number of letters are in German.
