United States Holocaust Memorial Museum Collection, Gift of Clifford Sikkema

Donated to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in 2022 by Clifford L. Sikkema.

Scope and Content

Comprised of correspondence sent by Dachau prisoner Johann, "Jan" or "Janek," Przyborowski (b. 1905), a non-Jewish Polish prisoner of Dachau, to his family in Poland concerning the lack of mail he received that year from his loved ones. It also includes guidance not to send parcels since Przyborowski was not permitted to receive them. He also writes that during the recent holidays his thoughts were with his wife and children. Przyborowski was arrested in Łódź in 1940 and sent to Dachau that same year. He was ultimately liberated at Dachau in 1945.
