[Cz-L] Jewish museum in Czernowitz

In July of this year, I sent you all, a copy of a letter I had received from
the Jewish museum in Czernowitz. I am copying this letter again here:
>
> The Museum of the History and Culture of Bukovinian Jews has recently
> started to realize a project with the title "Holocaust to the History
> lesson" which aims the creation of educational material about the Holocaust
> in the region around Chernivtsi. This material is going to be offered to
> all history teachers from this region, which can be the starting point for
> students to understand Holocaust not only as phenomen of the foreign
> history (as which it was treated before) but as part of their own history,
> the history of their town.
> For this reason we are right now looking for any kind of material about
> Holocaust in Bukowina. If somebody of you has got photos or documents or
> any other kind of material about this topic, we would be very pleased and
> grateful if you could make it available to us. You can send us scanned
> photos or documents to our Emailaddress jm.chernivtsi_at_gmail.com, copies or
> even originals to our post address Teatralna Square 5/1, 58002 Chernivtsi,
> Ukraine. Thank you very much for your help!!

Last month, in late October 2013, I spent a week in Czernowitz.
Among other things, I spoke with the curator of the Jewish museum,
Mykola Kushnir. It seems that the museum has been given more space
in what once was the Jewish "Cultus-Gemeinde" and there is a plan to add
to the museum a section about the Holocaust.

It will take some time to organize and establish this section, but while it
is being prepared, the museum staff is working on another related project,
As described below, in a copy of part of a letter I received more recently.

> We have a project about "Holocaust in history class" in the museum, which
> will consist of a temporary exhibition and materials for teachers.
> we would like to ask you if we could use them for this purpose.
> If this is the case we wanted to know if you could maybe send them to us in
> a better quality, because we will not be able to use them like this. How
> would you like us to state copyright in this case (from the personal
> archive of Miriam Taylor or anything else)?
> We also came across other documents (b2_066a2jpg/b2066a1jpg.) which would
> be interesting for the exhibtion but are also in a very poor quality.
> We thought that maybe you know where they are from and where we could get
> them in a better quality.

I was asked to let you know that the museum is looking for documents,
letters and photographs testifying to the regulations, laws and actions
taken by the Romanian government, army, local authorities and civilians,
which constituted the Holocaust in Czernowitz.

You do not have to send the museum your original documents and or
photographs, but please make sure that you scan the originals carefully,
And send the museum clear and sharp images.

The museum has copies of three documents, which I sent them some years ago,
also a copy of a document for Jacob Hersch Rauchwerger, (alluded to above),
sent by someone else.
Would the person who sent them the "Jacob Hersch Rauchwerger" document,
Please also send them an improved copy?
