User Comment:
I first tried searching for Szyja Ickowicz and came up with no search results, so I expanded my search to all people with the first initial S and last name Ickowicz, then looked for those who were born within the correct time frame (1930-1933). Szaja Mordka Ickowicz was the only person who matched all of the criteria, and Szyja could be an alternate spelling of Szaja.
Approver Comment:
I agree you have found the person who signed this name in the album. Szaja and Szyja are indeed analogues for one another. Best of luck in the next stages!
