The link to "Mon activité de faussaire : j'ai tout appris à Vire", Ouest France, 28 October 2009 (currently Reference #5) is broken but its text is on https://www.cbl-grenoble.org/3-cbl-grenoble-13-action-10.html. The last sentence of Section 1 Early life included "butter-shop", presumably a translation of the article's beurrerie, which I changed to butter factory on the basis of its translation on various webpages, but did so after originally writing butter-churning dairy which also appeared on some pages. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolfo_Kaminsky#R%C3%A9sistant_et_faussaire has laiterie.

It's possible Adolfo Kaminsky: A Forger's Life by Sarah Kaminsky, translated from Adolfo Kaminsky, une vie de faussaire, may include the authorised translation. Mcljlm (talk) 04:41, 18 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
