Fiehl & Co. Furs. Document is a letter of reference for Salomon Heiss, indicating that he completed a three-year apprenticeship, in which his duties were always executed with the utmost care and diligence. The letter states that the company would highly recommend him to anyone, and explains that his employment at the company ended due to lack of work. Narrative: Salomon Heiss was the father of the donor, Erika Bloom. The Heiss family fled Nazi-occupied Vienna in 1938, after Salomon was arrested and detained in Dachau for 3 days. They survived the war in Shanghai, immigrated to Israel in 1949, and eventually settled in Montreal.
