Red paper sign from Nazi-era France for Bernard Jeifa's, tailor shop written in both French and German. The sign indicates that the shop was Jewish owned. In an interview with Bernard's son Michel Jeifa, he stated that the sign said the shop was "assured by an Aryan manager." The store was closed in 1942. This information was obtained from a "Survivors of the Shoah" interview with Michel Jeifa on February 7, 1997.
