Hi,

Thought of sharing some images from Old Polish passports.
Some date from the founding of the Republic in 1919 and used up to the early 1950's...

They are also interesting because being used in Tokyo, Shanghai...
One belonged also to a victim from the Katyn massacre in 1940...

Thanks. He used it back to the states after the war broke out.
He was issued US passports too: 1945 + 1950 for nearly all countries...maybe a spy?

I find it odd that a cosmetician would travel to all countries in Asia, Africa and South America...

Hi again,

Looking for anyone who has old Polish passports and wants to exchange...
I like these passes, mainly from the end of WW1 up to 1950. The samples above range from that period up to 1952. the Special Passport...
The 1950 sample, large sheet, was issued only for Jew leaving Poland to Israel, remaining Holocaust survivors opted this way to leave and settle in Israel...

Hi Neil, thanks for your post. That’s an interesting collection you have developing. And I agree, the globetrotting cosmetician is of particular suspicion . . . er. . . interest
