الوصفLetter from "A. Sator, Import-Export Engineers and Contractors", in Shanghai. Letter confirming employment of George Szekeres from 1st January 1941 until 31st January 1943, "when the Japanese occupation Authorities compelled us to close down our works". Letter is significant because it actually mentions Japanese occupation as the reason for the company closing.
Letter served as an employment reference which helped in gaining permission to emigrate to Australia. From Hungary, George Szekeres and his wife Eszther spent several years in Shanghai, then migrated to Australia in 1948. He became a Professor at Adelaide University, and she worked as a teacher in Adelaide, South Australia.
