Singer sewing machine with wooden table top used by Smil Wagner, a tailor from Suceava, (S. Bukovina) Romania. In 1941-1942, Smil and the other Jews of his town were deported to the Shargorod (Sharhorod) ghetto in Romanian occupied Ukraine. Smil was allowed to bring his sewing machine. He made and repaired garments for the local Ukrainian population in exchange for food. Smil was able to leave the ghetto after the region was retaken by the Soviet Union in 1944.
