School #17A
School #17 was a school for girls in the Lodz ghetto; school #17a met in the morning. In 1941, students ranged in age from 6 to 13 years old (most were 8 to 11 years old), meaning they were born between 1928 and 1935.
School #17 was located at Młynarska 25. The street name was changed to Mühlstrasse when German occupation began in 1939. See
www.lodz-ghetto.com for a map of Młynarska and the rest of the Lodz ghetto.

User Comment:
In the Lodz Ghetto Inhabitants Database, listed as a "ghetto note" is the word "WEISENHAUS". This is probably referencing the word "waisenhaus," which is German for orphanage.
Expert Reviewer Comment:
Before I can approve of the information, please change the last name of Mindla to lowercase letters and not all capital letters. Everything else looks great!
Approver Comment:
I agree that Mindla is one possible candidate to have signed the album, since she was born within the likely age range for school #17A. Please also consider Mala Chajmowicz (b. 1930), Mania Chaimowicz (b. 1934), or Matylda Chajmowicz (b. 1928). Thanks!
