Borsdorf museum documents historical industrial ration card

The Heimatmuseum Borsdorf has documented a historical ration card used for the distribution of industrial finished goods. The card was issued to Johannes Franke, a resident of Borsdorf born in 1905.

Designed to ensure the equitable distribution of goods such as soap, textiles, and shoes, the card was valid for the Grimma district and the Wurzen city district. The document features official seals from the municipality of Borsdorf and contains various stamps from local businesses, including a tobacco retailer, a grocer, and a shoemaker.
