DescriptionHealth certificate with photo of Alice Krohn. It shows she was disinfected, washed and vaccinated by Doctor Pietro Mazzaccara (on reverse of card). Alice was a passenger on the Orient Line and this document states she travelled on the Naples-Vesuvius railway from Otranto, a town on the south-east coast of Italy. It translates as "Miss Alice Krohn who is departing from the port of Otranto has had a sanitary operation as indicated".
Part of a collection of material purchased at an auction in Annandale when a lot came up but no one bid on it. The donor realized it was going to be thrown away and bid $5 for it, because he dislikes it when people's history is discarded. Some of the correspondence relates to Jewish welfare, and thus he thought to donate the material to the Sydney Jewish Museum.
