Eva and Leana Münzer, Jewish sisters, pose with dolls. Their parents left them in the care of a Catholic family. Sometime after the Munzers were deported, a dispute arose between the husband and wife of the family hiding the two Münzer girls that resulted in the husband denouncing his wife and the Jewish children to the SS. The three were immediately arrested and sent to Westerbork. On February 8, 1944 the girls were deported to Auschwitz, where they were killed three days later.
