File Upload Title Description Related military service Related Museum Gallery Related Wall of Tribute Links

This is the project of book - album or exbition. This a piece of project 'A to Z Gallery of Pre-war Poland' in real which was'nt realized. We offered this project (to create real a permanent museum ? gallery) to many institutions, important officers, local governments, fluencial people. The idea is simply: real-life Museum will exhibit many thousands of original pre-war postcards and photographs illustrating the rich ethnic, religious and cultural diversity of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. The most important part of the collections will be grouped around topics relating to the theme of a multicultural Poland. You do not need to have an especially vivid imagination to recognise in this state the prototype of the European Union. Nothing better supports the claim that our European aspirations are not something alien that is being imposed on us from without, but something that is deeply rooted in our multinational tradition...

Zabludow (Poland). Jewish Cemetery. Photo taken by Beker. Ca 1930. Here is email of Tilford Bartman bartmant@earthlink.net "I know something about Beker family from Zabludow. They owned a bakery on the market square. In Chicago is Abe Beker. He is one of only two jews that I know about who are still alive and were in Zabludow on June 26 when Nazis came in and the wooden synagogue was burned. I went to Chicago and interviewed him three years ago. Today I think he is still alive but very sick and mentally out of it. He is a survivor of Auschwitz slave labor... became a successful accountant in Chicago. Day before Nazis came in mostly Polish residents of the town raided Soviet storehouses of grain. His friend Phina Chorowski had a pistol. He and Phina got away with a sack of grain. They woke up early next morning and went to split the grain. Suddenly they hear shooting and soon German army is entering Zabludow guns blazing and town is catching fire. They hid under a barn. They are watching the whole thing seeing people getting shot etc. Abe tells Phina give me your gun I am going to shoot myself I can't face the Germans. Phinia refuses to give him the gun. Abe later ends up in Bialystok Ghetto, then Auschwitz, and survives. Has two married daughters in Chicago at least three grandchildren....". THE PHOTO was colourized by Edyta Fiedorowicz.
