Dear Marianne,
I have no material related to what we called the Russian period,
1940-1941 and I doubt that anyone else has. People destroyed
the Russian documents, when the Romanians came back. It was safer
not to be caught with anything in Russian. There was a tremendous
shortage of photographic film during that period, Therefore, also
no photographs. For instance, before the summer of 1940 my father
took many photographs each year, but of that Russian year,
I have only one photograph, of very bad quality, which was taken
by the NKVD "natchalnik" who lived with us.
