This record group is comprised of the following materials: German-Jewish prewar identification papers, stamped with "J' and marked with the Nazi-established indicator of Jewishness, the middle name Israel or Sara; and work permits and identification papers issued in the German-occupied territories. Also included are documents which stand out because they were forged to serve as "Aryan" (non-Jewish) identification papers, enabling the Jews to assume false identities. These identification papers, issued for an assumption of a false identity, include work permits, birth certificates, and personal identification documents. Additionally, there are two related collections, which include organizational correspondence and Jewish badges.
Materials are digitized.
The arrangement scheme for the record group was imposed during processing in the absence of an original order. Materials are arranged by subject/creator, then by identifier, as assigned by the processor.
Record group is comprised of three collections: 1. Wartime identification documents; 2. Red Cross collection of organizational communications; 3. Jewish badges.
