The photographs are portraits given to Siegmund by friends; the post-war identity papers consist of reissued birth certificates, identity cards, travel permits, and naturalization papers; and the restitution papers document his extensive efforts to document his experiences for the purpose of reparations. The collection also includes an oral history from 1978 at Forrest High School.
