The Steinheim series consists of four pictures in the format 9 x 6 cm, all of which were taken in front of the Loeb family home in Sedanstraße 485. They show nine female Jewish citizens of Steinheim boarding the omnibus, which would take them to the assembly camp in Bielefeld's "Kyffhäusersaal." Two people from nearby Bergheim were already on board. Two of the pictures have survived as historical prints in the Johannes Waldhoff collection in Steinheim, the two others are available as recent reproductions only. Other prints of unknown vintage or origin are held by the Jewish Family and Children's Services Holocaust Center in San Francisco. 

Shortly after the war, the person who took the pictures in the Steinheim photo series handed prints of the photos to the local police officer named Frömling on the condition that the latter would not reveal his identity. In the early 1970s, when Frömling learned that local historian Johannes Waldhoff was researching the history of the Jewish people in Steinheim, he passed the pictures on to him. Since then, the pictures have been part of the Waldhoff collection and are now kept in Stadtarchiv Steinheim. The prints available at the JFCS Holocaust Center were donated to the archive by Werner Loeb, a survivor of the said deportation. It is not known how the pictures came into his possession or when he took them to the U.S.
