The Mass Extermination of Jews in German Occupied Poland . London: Hutchinson, [1943]. 8° (216 x 140mm). 16 pp, printed in red and black. Stapled as issued in original self-wrappers (staples with minor rust). A VERY EARLY OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE HOLOCAUST ADDRESSED TO THE UNITED NATIONS. Jan Karski-Kozielski, a Polish Government emissary in occupied Poland, bribed his way into a German concentration camp and witnessed the mass extermination of Jews. The report was written in 1942 and printed in 1943 on behalf of the Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs: 'In the hope that the civilised world will draw the appropriate conclusion, the Polish Government desire to bring to the notice of the public, by means of the present White Paper, these renewed German efforts at mass extermination, with the employment of fresh horrifying methods'.
