Jewish Holocaust... public reality... Nazi atrocities...
Item # 716532
November 28, 1942
THE NEW YORK TIMES, November 28, 1942
* Jewish Holocaust being known for the 1st time
* Nazi-occupied Poland exterminations
Page 7 has one column headings: "POLAND IN APPEAL ON NAZI OUTRAGES" "Her Parliamentary Council at London Calls to the World Against Massacres" "Underground Aids Jews", "Finance Minister Strausburger, on Visit Here, Says Germans' Killings Total 1,400,000" See images for coverage on the ongoing atrocities in Nazi-occupied Poland where extermination of the Jewish population was most prevalent. Rare to find such reports in newspapers at this time as the reality of the holocaust was just being realized. What better evidence to confirm of what really happened then having a 1st hand account from the day it was first reported.
Complete with 28 pages, light toning, some staining and a little wear at the margins, otherwise good.
AI notes: On November 27, 1942, the Polish government-in-exile, based in London, issued a formal public appeal to the Allied powers, detailing the horrific atrocities being committed by Nazi Germany against Jews in occupied Poland. The appeal was based on firsthand reports, including those smuggled out by the Polish underground, and described mass deportations, ghettos, and systematic extermination—what would later be fully recognized as the Holocaust. One of the most significant elements was the revelation that millions of Jews were being murdered, notably in death camps like Treblinka, Belzec, and Sobibor. The Polish government urged immediate Allied action, both to stop the genocide and to hold the perpetrators accountable. This marked one of the earliest official disclosures of the Holocaust to the Western world and prompted subsequent Allied declarations condemning the Nazi crimes.
