Thanks for your help. The mess tin also has a person's name engraved on the lid - I guess the soldier who owned it? Do you have any thoughts on which records/sources I might search for this name to see if I can find out more about his military record?

www.meininger-hotels.com/en/hotels/be.... These hotels are pretty good and reasonably priced. I like the Alexanderplatz one which is actually on Senefelder Platz!

Good to hear from you! That sounds fascinating and I’m looking forward to seeing how your thoughts develop on and around this theme.

Such everyday things speak so poignantly. Brings to mind this object (below) with an interesting biography. Spoon taken from the Warsaw Ghetto (Leszno 71) by an escapee, used in a Berlin forced-labour camp, a DP camp in Austria, taken to the USA. Later donated to the US Holocaust Memorial Museum.

Agency, artefact, assemblage, ontology, materiality. Also probably shouldn’t omit ritual!

Hello Benjamin! I’m trying to trace a biography a Hunter College alumna and Holocaust survivor deposited at Hunter I believe. Grateful if you could point me in the direction of who to contact about this. 🙏
