3 Photographs of the Warsaw ghetto where the historian Emanuel Ringelblum and his family were hiding, on 84 Groytzka Street, 1945-1946. Annotated in Yiddish, in pen, on the reverse side. In February 1943 Ringelblum and his family found a hiding place with some other 30 Jews, in the cellar of a Polish man's house – a 28 SqM bunker.

On March 7 1944 the hiding place was informed and discovered; Ringelblum, his wife, his son Uri and more than 30 people hiding in the bunker, along with those who hid them, were all executed in the Warsaw ghetto rubbles.
