This is the membership card of Regina Kupperman, who was a member of the Union of Fighters for Freedom and Democracy, which gathered, among others, former prisoners of Nazi camps. Shlomo Kupperman and his wife Regina Grünbaum returned to their hometown after the war. Although they had known each other since before the War, they did not get married until after their return to Oświęcim. They had a religious wedding in 1948 in Wałbrzych, and a civil wedding in Oświęcim a year later. The Kuppermans lived at 1 Parkowa Street and Salomon worked as an office worker at the Oświęcim Chemical Plant. Their daughter, Elina, born after the war, completed only six grades at the Queen Jadwiga Elementary School in Oświęcim, because she left with her parents for Israel in 1962. The Kuppermans traveled by train to Warsaw, then to Italy, and from there by ship to Haifa. They settled in Holon.
