Description: | This appears to be a copy of a message from Elsa Glauber to her daughter Grete, originally written on a Red Cross message form. At the time of writing (October 1942?) Elsa was in Koprzywnica, a small town in Poland, and Grete was living in London with Olive Rudkin, having escaped from Austria on a Kindertransport. This is probably the last communication ever received from Elsa, and it did not reach Grete until she returned to Vienna with Olive Rudkin in the late 1960s in an attempt to trace her family. Grete met someone she recognised, who gave her the message that they had saved for her for many years. Elsa's fate is unknown. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Jewish Museum, London | Rights holder: | Copyright holder unknown. | Subjects: | London at War | Temporal: | 1942 | Source: | Jewish Museum | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
