    Ian Hi,
    As far as I understand it the "Bombenpaß" was a identity/coupon book for people/families who were victims of bombing. Although I have never had one myself I understand that on the cover p2 where a list of rules that bombing victims had to follow when housed in guest houses. Pages 5-8 of the document contained coupons that were used for food and necessities, when used the use of the coupon was also recorded within the book.

      Thanks a lot for that information Simon, much appreciated.

      May I ask how much would a Bombenpass be worth?

        Ian Hi,
        Sorry I can't help you on the price front, but I wouldn't have thought a great deal, although I stand to be corrected.

              Hi,
              it is a document for people which were affected by bombing-raids. In this the scale of damage to their property was documented.
              The last pic you are showing is a postcard which they could send to a central office with their new adress in order that relatives and friend could find them under the new adress (which was a other flat or a shared home with other people). The pass originally also content some coupons for food etc.


              Regards
              Christian
