Lot 830
Lodz Ladle. Nickled brass ladle. 9" long, bowl is 1½" deep. Front of ladle is stamped "W. Rydza," reverse is stamped "M. Lider" and "Lodz" with a Star of David between the two. Finish wear on handle and some pitting in bowl. Condition is very good.
The stamp on the front of the ladle, "W. Rydza," is presumably the maker, but may be an owner. The stamp on the reverse, "M. Lider," refers to Mordka Lider, born 1872. Listed in the Lodz/Names project as a "Kaufmann" (businessman or merchant), his ghetto address is listed as 6 Bleicher (Ciesielska in Polish), where he lived with Bluma, born in 1880 and Rywka, born in 1912. Mordka and Bluma Lider are listed "GEST" (gestorben) August 23, 1942.
Estimated Value $150-UP.
