Jewish Identity Card w. info on the death of the owner

The boxed letters in red on the cover are for both latin and Hebrew for the word ARCHIVE (in Hebrew it would be ARCHION, which is just that next to ARCH), this would be the archiving of the card at the ghetto after the death of the holder. It should also have another stamp on it for passed away at the Litzmannstad Ghetto, it could also be found inside the ID itself, seems your sample does not have it, still, yours is an original and rare piece. You can also see my sample here with that extra stamp, left side bottom.

Something else to add: the hand written 36 in that boxed red stamp on the cover would possibly be that his card was number 36 to be cataloged for that date 6.6.42.

Very very sad ending.

More research needs to be done.
