This document was part of the certificate of identity used by Gustave's mother, Anna Rosemann Bauer, when she immigrated from the United Kingdom to Canada in 1947 to join her son. Gustave was born in 1924 in Hamburg, Germany, and was on vacation in Denmark with his mother Anna and brother Werner when the Nuremberg Laws of 1935 were passed. They decided not to return to Germany, and went to stay with Anne's sister in Brussels, Belgium. Gustave's father Manfred was arrested for smuggling money out of Germany and spent the next two years in prison. Manfred joined his family in Brussels when he was released from prison in 1937. In 1940, immediately before Germany occupied Belgium, all German males born before 1924 were ordered to register. Manfred and Werner were sent to France, where they were interned. On their way to France to join them, Gustave and his mother were arrested and sent to England on the last boat to leave Belgium before it was occupied.

- 1 page, single-sided. Folded once horizontally and twice vertically. Printed on letterhead of J. Sternthal Textiles. Document is a letter from Joel Sternthal to Gustave Bauer, in which Joel expresses thanks for a gift of bookends and provides news of the ongoing sponsorship process; Ottawa has approved the sponsorship and is waiting for final approval from London. Narrative: This document was donated by Eudice Bauer, the wife of Gustave Bauer. This letter is from Joel Sternthal, a Jewish Montrealer who sponsored Gustave and fostered him upon his release from the internment camp in Île aux Noix, Quebec, in 1942. Gustave was born in 1924 in Hamburg, Germany, and was on vacation in Denmark with his mother Anna and brother Werner when the Nuremberg Laws of 1935 were passed. They decided not to return to Germany, and went to stay with Anne's sister in Brussels, Belgium. Gustave's father Manfred was arrested for smuggling money out of Germany and spent the next two years in prison. Manfred joined his family in Brussels when he was released from prison in 1937. In 1940, immediately before Germany occupied Belgium, all German males born before 1924 were ordered to register. Manfred and Werner were sent to France, where they were interned. On their way to France to join them, Gustave and his mother were arrested and sent to England on the last boat to leave Belgium before it was occupied. In England, Gustave spent time in Folkestone, Pentonville Prison, Kempton Park, and Douglas, Isle of Man. He was in England from May 19 to July 4, 1940.

- Cover with drawing of an elephant and the words ' Big Boy' framed in gold. Space for pupil to write their name and grade. Pages are ruled in blue printed lines. Fifteen pages contain writing. This book belonged to Gustav Bauer in 1940 for his studies. There is a cartoon of Hitler on page three. The booklet is titled 'War - Krieg - Guerre". Most of the texts are songs and poems from Camp B. It was graded by a third party person in pink pencil crayon, crossing out some of Gus' passages and labelling them 'enemy propaganda,' 'not nescessary,' and 'military secret.' A piece of newspaper is used as a bookmark. It is an article from 1941 about Vichy improving conditions for alien prisoners. Gustav kept it in the interest of his father and older brother.
