File consists of a small, illustrated book describing the various ways the Dutch people suffered under Nazi occupation during the Second World War. The book is written in Dutch with humourous colour illustrations on each page. The title translates to "Crazy and Wise During Seyss," which is a reference to Arthur Seyss-Inquart who was the Reich Commissioner of the German occupied Netherlands. He was responsible for the deportation and murder of approximately 120 000 Dutch Jews in concentration camps and the forced labour of over 500 000 Dutch civilians. Each set of pages includes a contrast. For example Dutch Police actively confiscating bicycles under Nazi orders is compared to Police chosing to turn away so that they do not see a bicycle to confiscate. This file also includes a handwritten translation into English of each page provided by the Canadian Museum of Immigration at Pier 21 in 2019.
