Most of the collection consists of letters written or received by prisoners, but it also includes receipts for parcels, money orders and personal effects; paper currency; and realia, including Star of David badges that Jews were forced to wear. Adolf Hitler established the first concentration camp soon after he came to power in 1933. Prisoners at Nazi concentration camps in German territory were allowed to send and receive mail on a very limited basis. Letters written to and by Nazi concentration camp prisoners were subject to the scrutiny of regulations. 588 Description based on version viewed Aug. 11, 2015; title from search screen. 591 Record updated by Marcive processing 21 June 2024 650 0 Nazi concentration camps |zGermany |xHistory |y20th century |vSources. 650 0 Internment camps |zGermany |xHistory |y20th century |vSources. 650 0 Internment camp inmates |zGermany |xHistory |y20th century |vSources. 650 0 Nazi concentration camp inmates |zGermany |xHistory |y20th century |vSources. 655 7 Databases. |2lcgft 710 2 McMaster University. 830 0 Archives unbound. 830 0 Gale databases. 856 40 |uhttp://go.galegroup.com/gdsc/i.do?id=4MTP&v=2.1&u=wash13709&it=aboutCollections&p=GDSC&sw=w |zSubscription access only. 852 |ber |zSubscription access only.
