School:
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
www.lodz-ghetto.com for a map of Goplánska and the rest of the Lodz ghetto.

User Comment:
His birthdate makes it seem like he might be too old for School #1, but he is only two years outside the normal range, the name from the student list matches the database entry perfectly, and the database lists his occupation as schueler, meaning student. Also, the Lodz Ghetto Inhabitants Database lists his address as Zimmer 16 9.
Approver Comment:
I agree. This is very likely the student who signed the album. For now, I am going to list it as possible rather than confirmed. I'd like a little more converging evidence before we mark it "confirmed." That said, I think you've found the best match available.
