- Notes
- Heart-shaped autograph book made of folded paper, with purple fabric cover embroidered with the letter F in red thread. Pages are glued together with glue made from bread starch. The booklet contains 8 folded paper pages with messages written by prisoners. There are 21 different messages inside the booklet including 2 which are not signed. 19 different names appear. 4 messages are dated 1944-12-12 and one is dated 1945-01-26. Narrative: Booklet was given to Fania Landau on her 20th birthday by 19 co-workers in the Union ammunition factory in Auschwitz. Made in secret with materials stolen or found in the camp, the heart brings together messages of hope and birthday wishes. It represents the solidarity between these women, but also their courage and strength to withstand their horrific situation. Again, at great peril, they also presented a “cake” to Fania, made of hidden bread and decorated with margarine, on December 12, 1944.
