Family that saved her belongings during World War II

We did have some distant relatives. And then she worked as a domestic for this very nice family here in Berkeley and they told us that anything we wanted to save they will keep for us until the end of the war. So we filled up this trunk. The first thing I put in the trunk was my paper dolls and that's how they got saved.
