Lodz Gymnasium Braude (abt 1934-36).
Photo taken during pre-military training that was part of the education

(originally Cytrynowski,
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.
