Much of Ukraine was owned by Poland from 1569 to 1918, and then Ukraine had
a brief period of independence, until 1920 when Poland again ruled the western
half until the 2 nd World War. This paperwork comes from the estate
of the Lerer family who immigrated to the United States and lived in Cincinnati.
Ben Lerer was trying to get his mother out of Poland and into the US. What we
have here are a couple of pictures of the family, a postcard written to Ben
from his mom, in Poland, a great old picture of a man, who I think was his
father, a picture of his mother and her passport, stamped with a date of May
27, 1921 for her entry into the US. The passport is Polish and has the Red Star
Line Inspection Card tipped in. Eight pages, in the passport have stamps or writing
on them. This is some fascinating stuff; I believe that Ben was a radio
actor/personality. If you have any questions or need more pictures please let me
