Indeed out of the 15000 children to pass through Terezín only 100 survived.

Ernst Weil a native of Germany was influenced by his cousin the bookseller Heinrich Eisemann to collect and eventually to sell early printed books. In 1924 he founded with Hans Taeuber the firm of Taeuber & Weil in Munich; in 1933 he moved his family to London where he entered into partnership with E. P. Goldschmidt. In 1943 he began selling books under his own name issuing 33 catalogues before his death in 1965. Although modestly produced his catalogues contain much research and original observation particularly on hitherto ignored medical and scientific books. See E.
