About tombstones I don't have impressions . Either I know or I don't.
I don't .
Who of the Jews had money at any given time is an enigma.
So was their spending preferences.

Jim,
I have a different impression from Mimi. Most of these small tombstones made
from concrete and having an inset plaque are from the period 1940-1947.
During this period, who had the money to erect more prominent tombstones in
memory of their loved ones?
