Re: [Cz-L] Deportation

Dear Mimi and Hardy,

Actually, in addition to sending this photograph to the Jewish
Museum in Chernivtsi, it should also be sent to the US Holocaust
Memorial Museum in Washington, DC, USA.
http://www.ushmm.org/
They have huge archives and
preciously value photographs such as this.
