I found this information with the Lodz Ghetto Inhabitants database.
Approver Comment:
I agree this is one possible candidate to have signed this name in the album. Please also check out Israel Weintraub, born in 1926, as another possibility. In the future, please leave us a comment about your process for deciding who may have signed the album. Thanks!

I found Chil Szaja Wajntraub living at the same first two addresses as Israel; Chil died in April of 1942. His birthdate (October 27 1895) seems right for being Israel's father. I found the matching addresses in the Lodz Ghetto List in the Lodz Ghetto Inhabitants database.
Date of move added.
Approver Comment:
I agree with this conclusion. Good work!
The date listed, July 25, 1942, is the day Israel Wajntraub (b. 1926) moved to Hohensteinstrasse 21.
