Puola - Mitali - Auschwitz Cross with Named Polish Prisoner
An exceptional and historically significant set of original Holocaust-era and post-war memorabilia directly connected to a named Polish political prisoner and concentration camp survivor.
This rare ensemble offers not only an authentic Auschwitz Cross, but also documented provenance, making it a highly desirable collector’s piece of museum-level quality.
This unique set includes:
• Auschwitz Cross (Krzyż Oświęcimski)
Official Polish state decoration awarded to survivors of Nazi German concentration camps.
This is the original struck version (not cast), featuring the red inverted triangle with the letter “P” (Polish political prisoners) and the dates 1939–1945.
The medal retains its original ribbon and is accompanied by the original red presentation case with the Polish eagle emblem.
• Original Veteran / Combatant Documents (PRL period)
A group of official documents confirming the status of the decorated individual as a former prisoner of Nazi concentration camps.
The documents include typed and stamped certifications issued by Polish veterans’ and former prisoners’ organizations, clearly referencing imprisonment during WWII.
Importantly, the documents identify the specific individual, providing verifiable historical context and provenance.
• Original Post-War Auschwitz Camp Postcard
An authentic period postcard depicting KL Auschwitz, issued in later years, representing the post-war documentation and remembrance of the camp site.
A powerful visual supplement that strengthens the historical narrative of the set.
Historical Context
The Auschwitz Cross was established to honor those who endured imprisonment in Nazi German concentration camps. It remains one of the most emotionally charged Polish commemorative decorations of the post-war era.
Sets that combine the medal with named documentation and camp-related material are becoming increasingly scarce and are actively sought after by advanced collectors, museums, and educational institutions.
Condition
The medal shows honest period wear consistent with age and history.
Documents display typical archival wear, folds, and aging, fully consistent with original use.
The presentation box shows light wear.
