Lodz Gymnasium Braude (abt 1934-36).

whose parents were Hebrew teachers in Lodz, as was his grandfather).
Sewek Lewkowicz (later Lavi) is the man standing on the far left.
Prof. Cytri is the rightmost one standing. Most of these students were born in 1920-21.

Three Girls from Lodz -
Who are they?

 
This photo belonged to Tsirel (Celia) Frisch, who emigrated from Lodz to Paterson, New Jersey,
in 1914 with her husband Max and infant daughter. Her granddaughter, Elaine Farran,
recalls her talking about her friends/relatives, the "Hambergers" (does not know the connection).
These girls may also be "Rosenbergs," because the back of the postcard is addressed to:
 Zigmund Rosenberg, 12 Spruce Street, Paterson, NJ.
