- In the centre of the cover is the Reichsadler of the Weimar Republic. The second page of the passport has a sepia photograph portrait of a girl, with her hair up, and a collared shirt on. On the inside there are 3 circular stamps with the Reichsadler in the middle, 2 oval stamps, and 3 Baden-Baden stamps. Narrative: The middle name Sara was added to Miriam Grunfeld's name as per the Second Ordinance on the Implementation of the Law on the Amendment of Surnames and Family Names of 17 August 1938. This law aimed to identify German Jews by their first names. Unless they already had a name “viewed by the German people as a typical Jewish name", they had to take the name Israel or Sara starting in January 1939. The Law on the Amendment of Surnames and Family Names and its amendments were prepared by the Ministry of the Interior and written by Hans Globke. The implementation of this regulation is seen as "the first attempt at a general, external marking of the Jews" (See reference: Uwe Dietrich Adam: Judenpolitik im Dritten Reich. Unv. Nachdr. Düsseldorf 2003, ISBN 3-7700-4063-5, S. 120.). Miriam Grunfeld used this passport to leave Austria for the United Kingdom as part of the Kindertransport program. She arrived in Harwich England on March 30, 1939.
