Description
Rare German passport issued to a Jewish woman from Mannheim, issued in 1938 to Ernst Israel Mayer. Passport is really interesting because there are some visas of a trip to Chile via Italy. This trip was done in 1939 to save his life and escape the Holocaust in Germany. Passport has the well known big red "J" ink stamp to identify him as a Jew. There's another interesting detail: this man was forced to use male name "Israel", according to the anti-Semitic law that obligued all the Jewish men and women to use Israel and Sara respectively in all the documents so that they could easily be identified as Jews. It comes with her photo and overall condition is excellent.
