• Here we'll place all manner of identity booklets, membership cards, papers, etcetera, both civilian and military. We'll scan any pages with writing or stamps and any unique pages within the books. Basically we'll scan any and all pages except duplicate pages of designs we've already scanned.

    [Below: An uncommon item, you would think there would be many of these around, but there is not. It says:

    'Angestellten Versicherung'.

    (Employee Insurance).

    This is from 1941. Click to see within.]

    [Below: An example of the tax stamps within.]

    [Below: This is a blank Red Cross identification card made of oilskin. It says:

    'Wehrmacht des Deutschen Reiches - Truppenteil -
    Personalausweis -
    [...]
    wird ausschließlich im Sanitätsdienst -
    Er ist berechtigt, das Genfer Abzeichen (gestempelte weiße
    Armbinde mit rotem Kreuz) zu tragen und steht unter dem Schutz
    der Artikle 9, 12, und 13 des Genfer Abkommens vom

    (Wehrmacht of the German Reich - Troop Unit

    armband with a red cross) and is protected by

    [Below: This is an Allied occupation card from 1948. It says:

    [Below: This is a 'Kennkarte' (Identity Card) from 1944. Click to see more.]

    [Below: This is a 1946 'Kennkarte' (Identity Card) from the Allied occupation of Germany. You'll note that it is in the three languages of the occupiers: English, French and Russian. I love the part where it says 'law for liberation from Nazism and Militarism', coming from Britain, who waged war on practically the whole world over its history, and the USA, who still continues to murder people all over the globe, usually civilians. And then there is Soviet Russia... I won't even get into that. Click to see more.]

    [Below: Now that is a MUSTACHE!!!]

    [Below: This is another 1946 'Kennkarte' (Identity Card) from the Allied occupation of Germany. Like the one above, it is in the three languages of the occupiers: English, French and Russian. I won't even get into that. Click to see more.]

    [Below: Wow, another massive mustache! This guy could be the father of the guy above!]

    [Below: This is a rare, unusually large work permit (in German and Cyrillic) for a Ukrainian girl named Frasina Palamtschuk. She was born on January 16, 1925 (she was 17 at the time) in Sabariwka (Zabarivka), a village in Ukraine. At the top it says: 'The owner is only authorized to leave the accomodation for the purpose of performing work.' In the center it says 'Work card for workers from Old Soviet Russia'.]

    [Below: Close-up of Frasina Palamtschuk.]

    [Below: Reverse of work permit. A paper has been glued over another entry. You can see some sort of odd-looking grey stamps, unfortunately it is impossible to look under the paper without tearing it, but whatever stamps these are I have never seen their like before. Anyway, here is more information, including that she worked for a wholesaler named 'Peter Gelhard & Sohn', in the town of Ransbach, in the region of Westerwald, Germany. The card was issued on November 25, 1943.]
