School #1
School #1 was a religious school for boys in Lodz. Most students at School #1 in September 1941 were between 9 and 15 years old, meaning that they were born between 1926 and 1932.
School #1 was located at Goplánska 26. The street name was changed to Buchbinderstrasse when German occupation began in 1939. See

User Comment:
Although the boy's last name does not match the original, the date of birth and occupatinon (student) convince me that he may be the correct match.
Approver Comment:
It's possible that this is Dawid Palter, and I like your reasoning. However, without additional data, we cannot confirm for sure that Dawid Walter is the student who signed the album. So, I'm marking this submission as "possible." FYI - If we can find the school registration lists for School #1, perhaps we will be able to cross-reference using his address to see if this is a match. Dawid Walter moved from Radwanska 7 to Rauch Gasse 22 Flat 3 in the ghetto.
