- Shoe brush made of red-brown stained wood with rounded edges and concave back. Black bristles are bordered by beige bristles. A hidden compartment is revealed by sliding the back away from the part that holds the bristles. Narrative: Chava Favor was born on March 22, 1920 to Albert Fleischer and Juliana Beck. She was sent to Szeged ghetto (Hungary) in early 1944, where she received this brush from a Hungarian carpenter. In the summer of 1944, she used the brush to smuggle a small diamond brooch and money (the equivalent of $500) onto a train to a sub-camp of Mauthausen. She was eventually liberated from Strasshoff concentration camp (Austria) by the Soviet Army. After living in Prague (Czechoslovakia), Chava used the brush to smuggle $3,000 into Israel in 1949. She immigrated to Canada in 1952.
