Arel Pinsker and Three Friends

This was a picture postcard sent to Anna Komisar from her nephew, Arel Pinsker. He was killed during WWII in the Red Army. The three friends shown were killed in the Holocaust.

The message on the card reads: "I am sending you my photo. It is your nephew Arel Pinsker with his three friends--all tailors. I myself am also a tailor. I am sitting on the left side near the tall young man. I would like to send regards to Leah and her husband and child; Shai with his wife; Maryasha, her husband, and children. I also want to send regards to Uncle David and Aunt Ziskin, Avremal and children. To Braindel, I also send regards."
