The NAZI Scourge:
Postal Evidence of the Holocaust and the Devastation of Europe

The Spungen Holocaust Postal Collection

In 2007, Danny Spungen, a collector and philatelist, on behalf on the foundation, acquired arguably one of the best known collections of Holocaust materials related to stamps, covers, postcards, letters, bank note forgeries, and manuscripts from concentration camps & Jewish ghettos. Formally known as "The NAZI Scourge: Postal Evidence of the Holocaust and the Devastation of Europe," the Spungen Holocaust Postal Collection is being made available to the public, here on the Foundation's web site.

The collection of more than 250 pieces is arranged into 10 sections (or Frames) each with multiple pages (in PDF format) containing images and descriptive text describing both the documents in the collection as well as the context in which the documents were created and used. To view the collection in PDF format requires the use of Adobe's Acrobat Reader, which is available free of charge from from the Adobe web site.

The collection has recently been in the News.
