Sakheim sent the statement along with a copy of the photograph and the tribunal pass to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum Archives in 1993. When it was realized that the document was an alienated document, Archives staff arranged for its transfer to the National Archives. A copy of the statement was retained for the Archives collection.
