    Hi guys,

    Here is a recent pickup of mine. I really wasn't sure what it was or if it was original when I saw the pictures but I took a punt on it for a couple of quid.

    Has anybody seen one before? Secondly, is it original?

    Thank you, Glen.

    I would imagine this is quite a scarce surviving document?

    Interesting Guernsey Occupation Document.

    I found the entry "Presumed British, non Jewish" entry interesting. From slightly jaded memory I believe there were only two Jews living in the Channel Islands, whom I think were nannies from Austria, both were handed over by British "Bobbies" to the German authorities. The two ladies were then deported to their deaths in Auschwitz.
    I collect, therefore I am.

    Horrid. They might have imagined themselves to be out of harms way away from the Continent, only then to have the Germans show up.

    Hi,
    Yes this is 100% original, but its one of those documents that there were quite a lot of and many still exist and therefore are of little monetary value. More of a historically interesting piece rather than a pension fund. Unfortunately there are no official German stamps on the document which would have significantly increased its interest and value. It says on the sheet that there are 3 copies so thats 3 for one person. Many exist in collections and are in the low bracket with regards to value. I would still pick up such itemsas they are part of the bigger picture and have a story to tell. Well done and keep hunting.
    All the best from Jersey.

    Thank you for this information. I have never seen one for sale of even in somebodies collection. It is a shame the other accompanying documents aren't present; I will send the seller a message to see if he has anymore of the documents.

    Wheat would be the going rate for a document like this, £10-£20?

    Thank you, Glen.
