Postcard from Bezalel Kösten

April 1942 Postcard from Bezalel Kösten in Sweden to His Parents in the  Łódź Ghetto

A postcard sent from Bezalel Kösten, 6 Bruksrägen, Hässelby-Vällingby, Sweden (not occupied during WWII) to S. Kösten in the  Łódź Ghetto on April 1, 1942.

​

Dear parents,

I presume that you have received my previous postcard. I am no longer in Halmstad. I am worried about you, that I have had no news from you. I've sent you some packages. I can send no more. Have you got the clothes I sent you?

 

I am on the way to Stockholm, for Passover begins in a few hours. I wish you the best of everything for Passover. May we be able to celebrate the next holidays in good health together. I have long heard nothing from my beloved brothers and sisters. Write to my uncle absolutely as soon as you can. Tell me how you are.

​

Greetings, kisses,

happy Passover,

Your Bezalel

​

Safe in Sweden but his parents and siblings are not.

How is Bezalel feeling?
