In 1945 he was tasked with compiling a documentation of Nazi wartime atrocities for the Nuremberg Trials.

1598ref. 66701598. 22 leaves including some blanks or pages ruled in ink for entries. Agenda format 315 x 100 mm. stitched as issued uncut. Nuremberg: 1598. A fascinating document of a type that rarely survives: the manuscript account book for the spring 1598 Leipzig fair of Hans Straub I or the Elder 1541-1610 the prominent Nuremberg gold- and silversmith alderman and son-in-law of Wenzel Jamnitzer the best-known German goldsmith of his time. The first leaf bears Straub’s hallmark interwined initials “HS” over an arrow pointing upward within a plain shield & also containing the inscription “No. 72”. Our manuscript sheds important light on the business relations in the late 16th century between the Nuremberg goldsmiths and their trade at the Leipzig fairs. Our account book is a list of sales orders and expenditures of Nuremberg goldsmith Hans Straub the Elder during the Leipzig Easter fair held in May 1598. While Straub is not expressly named he can be identified by his hallmark on the first leaf. At the fair trade was done in goblets rings knife-sheaths cutlery jewelry gemstones etc. Several business partners are named including the Nuremberg goldsmiths Heinrich Hahn Haan David Lauer and Paulus Koch. As an example of a transaction we see that the council of Halle paid over 33 florins for a goblet. In 1596 Straub was elected Alderman of the Artisans the most elevated and honorable office to which a Nuremberg artisan could aspire. Straub retained this position until his death in 1610. In 1569 he married Anna daughter of the famous goldsmith Wenzel Jamnitzer. On his father-in-law’s death in 1585 Straub inherited his casting molds and used them extensively in his own creations. Despite his long period of activity relatively few pieces made by Hans Straub have survived see Nürnberger Goldschmiedekunst 1541-1868 2007 ed. by Karin Tebbe et al. Vol. I p. 409. In fine condition. ⧠The mark is similar to Marc Rosenberg Der Goldschmiede Merkzeichen Frankfurt 1925 Vol. III no. 3969. unknown
ref. 25574LETTERS: 9 July 1953 and 11 May 1954. NOTE: 14 July 1953. All three items on letterheads of the Royal Courts of Justice Strand London WC2. The third letter gives an excellent indication of Birkett’s pride in his use of language. See his entry in the Oxford DNB. The recipient Vere Henry Collins 1872-1966 was an author and grammatical stickler. All three signed ‘Norman Birkett’. In fair condition lightly aged and little grubby. The first letter with a small hole to one corner and the two leaves of the last letter held together with a pin. ONE: ALS 9 July 1953. 1pp 4to. He is adding Collins’s book to his ‘select library on “words”’. ‘I am afrait that “finalise” is in frequent use as “I was sent to finalise the arrangements” and it is often used by witnesses in court and sometimes not without protest from me by barristers.’ He ends: ‘But the purpose of this letter is to thank you if somewhat belatedly for the interest you took in the subject of my address and for your kindness in writing to me.’ TWO: ANS 14 July 1953. 1p 4to. He has no objection if Collins adds the note he sends him ‘to the book now at the printers’. He will get ‘One Word and Another’ when it is published. THREE: ALS 11 May 1954. 3pp 4to. He will read the book Collins has sent him with great pleasure ‘for as you know anything written about words has a great fascination for me’. Turning to Collins’s ‘criticism of some remarks of mine uttered in the course of an after-dinner speech’ which have appeared without Birkett’s knowledge or consent he is for the most part in agreement ‘but I take it a little hard that the unpremeditated effusion of the moment should be treated as though it were a carefully prepared essay. I will say no extempore speech can survive a scrutiny such as the scrutiny you send to me.’ With regard to Collins’s seven points he feels he should ‘keep in mind the difficulties of extempore speaking. The perfect word does not always come readily to the tongue. The sentences do not always flow as one could wish and the “verbal expert” seated in his comfortable study might make a little allowance for human frailty!’ In the following paragraph he turns the tables on Collins analysing his use of language in his letter to Birkett. With a veiled criticism of Collins he explains how ‘the lover of words as I am can become a “tiresome pedant” ’ Collins’s criticism has clearly hit home as Birkett adds a fourteen-line postscript in his distinctive close hand ending: ‘I cannot even be sure that the reporter took down accurately what I did say: I had no notes and never dreamt that what I said would receive this unwanted publicity and subject me to the criticism of lovers of good English!’ LETTERS: 9 July 1953 and 11 May 1954.

1949ref. 027267Washington D.C.: U.S. Government 1949. 25 pages; inscribed by the author "Frida My best Joe" on the cover and with a hand-written note on The Dodge Hotel Washington D.C. letterhead paper referring to details of this landmark WWII case: ".Dear Frida: General Clay affirmed the confiscation about ten days ago but with some awfully strained wording last Sunday's Times. I am fighting it out by cable. Hope to be in next week. Cordially Joe." Joseph William Kaufman 1899 - 1981 lawyer and judge; ".made his most distinctive mark as a prosecutor in the Nuremberg war crime trials. He functioned as a deputy chief counsel overall and as chief prosecutor at the trial of Alfried Krupp and eleven other executives of the Krupp armaments industries. The Krupp trial held in the Palace of Justice in Nuremberg lasted eleven months and resulted in the conviction of the defendants for the crimes of plunder and using slave labor. They were found not guilty of the charge of waging aggressive war. Kaufman was praised by contemporaries for his handling of the difficult and detailed case." Barry Ryan in the ANB The text of this "memorandum" defends the confiscation of the Krupp holdings refuting the arguments used by the defense against the decree point by point. ".For nearly 11 months the Krupp case unfolded in a sprawling dirty gray sandstone courthouse known as the Palace of Justice where the other major war crimes trials had been held. More than 200 witnesses were called and 4200 exhibits offered and the transcript of the proceedings ran to 13454 pages. Mr. Kaufman's presentation of the evidence was later praised by colleagues as detailed thorough and overwhelming. He told of atrocities and offenses that included murder torture enslavement imprisonment deportation and other abuses against Jews and other civilians as part of a conspiracy with Hitler to dominate the world." 1981 Robert D.
