George Fried Papers.

Consists of thirteen documents (photocopies and originals) collected by the Fried family during persecution. Among the documents are certificates, travel passes, and falsified forms acquired by Elizabeth Fried in order to show that she was a Roman Catholic instead of a Jew. Many of the documents are accompanied by an English translation. A copy of a letter from George Fried to USHMM, which describes his experiences in Europe, was added by the cataloger. This letter makes frequent references to documents within the collection. Numbers within the text make reference to specific documents.
