    Hi xiaolin,

    the handwritten content isn't easy to read but there is a very interesting passage on the middle part of the backside (below the chinese cancel)

    "Vorgestern ist der Palestina Transport abgegangen" = The day before yesterday the transport to Palestine departet

    ..."geht ein Transport Shanghai nach Südamerika" = goes a transport Shanghai to South America

    It seems that even during the first years of World War II some (very few) jews could escape from Nazi-Deutschland legally on transports to Palestine or Shanghai.

    Regards
