In 1979 two paintings, a Renoir, Tête de jeune fille, and a Pissarro, Rue de village, appeared on Interpol's "12 Most Wanted List," but to date no one knows there whereabouts (ATA Newsletter, Nov. '79, vol. 1, no. 9, p.1. '78, 326.1-2) The New Jersey owner has asked IFAR to republish information about the theft, with the hope that someone will recognize the paintings. The owner wrote IFAR that when his parents emigrated from Berlin in 1938, two of their paintings "mysteriously disappeared." All of their other possessions were shipped from Germany to the U.S. via Holland, and everything except the box containing these two paintings arrived intact. After World War II the owner's father made a considerable effort to locate the paintings, but was unsuccessful. Over the years numerous efforts have been made to recover them, articles have been published, and an advertisement appeared in the German magazine, Die Weltkunst, May 15, 1959. A considerable reward has been offered, subject to usual conditions, but there has been no response. Anyone with information about these two paintings is asked to contact IFAR.


This might very well be added, if reworded. I should not be the EXACT SAME TEXT - that was published, that will give us copyright issues, that is why it was removed. Also, add reference to it, like this <ref>[(ATA Newsletter, Nov. '79, vol. 1, no. 9, p.1. '78, 326.1-2)]</ref> that is good, then it will stay. Hafspajen (talk) 15:15, 14 September 2014 (UTC)Reply
