See Polish cover letter prefacing the document. Original appears to be in Auschwitz Museum.
Blockbuch listing includes prisoner number, prisoner category or nationality, full name, age, and (illegible). Many categories of prisoner type followed by a filled-in inverted triangle (I have called these "political prisoner" in the status slot following nationality on database form.) Not clear here whether Am J is American Jew, and whether both Rus and R indicate Russian prisoner. Z could signify Zeltlager (see Monowitz deathbook, German-language preface letter, in this CEGES collection file, 31608).
The collection inventory indicates that this is the "Blockbuch des KL-Auschwitz-Birkenau" for 1944.
