BeskrivelsePostcard addressed to Jakob Sapir in Kobe, Japan, from Hanna Szendzielarowa in Lithuania. She writes how much she misses them, that she had had problems after the last operation and was very sick, that Zygmunis lost his job and conditions have occurred in a way that he is unable to work.
Jakob Sapir, his wife Tola and son Peter, travelled in the late 1930s from Poland to Vilno in Lithuania, then on to Moscow. They then travelled from Vladivostock to Kobe, Japan and eventually arrived in Shanghai in 1941. They lived in the French quarter in Shanghai, but were later moved into the Hongkew ghetto. Peter Sapir attended St. Francis Xavier's school, run by English priests, which was outside the ghetto boundary. Jakob Sapir earned a living in Shanghai running a Polish kitchen. The family left Shanghai in 1947, aboard the "Hwa Lien" ship, migrating to Sydney, Australia.
