Polish, Ukrainian, and Jewish Periodicals Published in Interwar Poland, 1914-1939 | Los Angeles Museum of the Holocaust

The arrangement scheme for the record group was imposed during processing in the absence of an original order. Materials are arranged by publication, then by identifier, as assigned by the processor.

Record group is comprised of three collections: 1. Polish interwar periodicals, collection; 2. Ukrainian interwar periodicals in Poland, collection; 3. Jewish interwar periodicals in Poland, collection.

A combined record group comprising three sub-groups of the interwar publications in Polish and Ukrainian language. The Archive has thousands of copies produced from the microfilms. There is no repository, to our knowledge, in the United States that owns original hard copies. The original periodicals are located in Poland and Ukraine, namely in Warsaw, Cracow, and Lviv. Only a limited number of repositories in the United States and Canada are in possession of microfilms. Building this Collection, we followed the example of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in collecting the unique publications and archival materials from the institutions that hold the originals or the microfilms of the originals.

This Record Group is divided in to three sub-groups with regard to the language of publication and a political affiliation. Often the periodicals affiliated with the political right, political left and with the national minorities present diametrically opposite political views.  Materials collected in this Record Group serve as a valuable historic source in the interwar European History
