After the Second World War, a collection of books was found without an owner in Bremerhaven. The exact circumstances of the find and the associated ownership can no longer be clarified. The books were kept in the Bremerhaven City Library, the Bremen State Archives and the Bremerhaven City Archives.
A Nazi persecution-related withdrawal can not be ruled out.
