Description: Includes extraordinary Yiddish letters.
Between 1922 and 1939, Wolf Lewkowicz, of Konskie, Lodz and Opoczno, Poland, engaged in a lengthy and intimate correspondence in Yiddish with Sol J. Zissman, his deceased sister's son, who was born in Konskie, Poland, and who had immigrated to the United States as an 11-year old boy prior to World War I. When the correspondence began, Wolf was 36 years old; he and his wife, Malke, and their three children lived in Lodz. At that time, Sol was 20, unmarried, and living in Chicago. After his mother's death in 1920 and his father's remarriage in 1921, Sol had left home and had opened a second hand furniture store.
