A tremendously important set of scarce original publications documenting knowledge of the Holocaust by the government of the United States and linking this to support for the establishment of what would become the State of Israel. Issued during World War II with the printing accordingly done on lesser quality paper stock, but despite age-related yellowing in overall amazing vintage condition with only a few corners folded, one leaf discolored from a paperclip (now removed) and pencil markings on the first title-page. The binding is rock solid. Containing the library stamp of Harold T. Ginsparg (1926-2022) on the front free and rear pasted endpapers as well as the name in manuscript of another owner, I. Aidenstein (?). Dr. Ginsparg was born in Romania to a prominent Jewish family and emigrated to the U.S., he returned to Europe while serving in the U.S. Army, and subsequently earned a doctorate in Clinical Psychology. Purchased directly from Dr. Ginsparg’s library following his passing. “Taking cognizance of the ruthless persecution of the Jewish people of Europe by the Nazi barbarians and their satellites, and the desperate need of a haven of refugee for those able to escape from their almost unbelievably inhuman atrocities,… resolved that the United States use its good offices to have Palestine opened for free entry of Jews, and to provide full opportunity for colonization by Jews so that Palestine may ultimately be reconstituted as a free and democratic commonwealth.” 1944–from Report No 1997 (above).
