    Collection Summary
    The collection consists of artifacts, correspondence, documents, newspapers, and photographs relating to the experience of Ralph (Ralf) Harpuder and his family in Berlin, Germany, before the Holocaust, in Shanghai, China, during and after World War II, and in the United States following their emigration in 1947, and of Ralph's stepfather, Viktor Stummer, in Vienna, Austria, before the Holocaust and in Shanghai during and after the war. Some of these materials may be combined into a single collection in the future.
