Certificate of possession of a work card by Maria Staniszewska (false name of Halina Olszewicka)

It is part of the collection

Relic from the period of Olszewicka's stay under a false name on the so-called the Aryan side. A very important document, necessary to function 'above ground'. From Jerzy Olszewicki's memories: "My sister had good credentials. She worked in a hospital in Solec and it was from there that she had an authentic work certificate, a pass. Such credentials (only the birth certificate was forged) were to give a greater sense of security' ('Losy Żydowskie. Świadectwo żywych', ed. M. Turski, Warszawa 1996).
