The identified books in David Spitzer's possession are an anthology and the work Die schönsten Lieder der Ostjuden (1920).

At the request of the descendants, the two books are now part of the Spitzer Family Papers (Brandeis University, Robert D. Farber University Archives and Special Collections, see collection description and finding aid).
