Handstamped "Jude" by Nazi police and flanked by two Mogen Davids. A bilingual form was created enabling Nazis to register Jews and their belongings. Questions six and seven related to religion and ethnicity; question eleven asked for details of any business owned; question twelve pertained to home ownership. After blitzkrieg against Poland, Himmler ordered the registration of all Jews and other declared enemies of the state.
