Class photograph of the Central Holy Yeshiva of Navahrudak. Pinsk, 1931.
At the center of the photograph are the pictures of the "Head of the Yeshiva and its dean Rabbi Shmuel Weintraub", "Rabbi Yitzchak Waldstein – Spiritual Head", "Rabbi Yitzchak Orlansky – Mashgiach" and "Rabbi Ya'akov Yisrael Kanievsky – Rosh Metivta" (delivers lectures). Under these photographs are more photographs of the rabbis and young men who studied in the Yeshiva surrounded by more than 200 Yeshiva students. Most of those who appear in the photographs perished in the Holocaust.
The Navahrudak Yeshiva in Pinsk-Karlin was the central yeshiva of the chain of Navahrudak Yeshivot. Established between the two world wars by Rabbi Shmuel Weintraub, a close disciple of the Saba of Navahrudak, it became one of the most large and important yeshivot in Lithuania in those days. The Yeshiva staff was comprised of some of the most outstanding rabbis of the Navahrudak movement who served alongside Rabbi Shmuel Weintraub. Around 1926, Rabbi Ya'akov Yisrael Kanievsky, the Steipler, started to serve as Rosh Metivta in the yeshiva. He remained in this position for eight years until he ascended to Eretz Israel in 1934.
Photograph, 16X23 cm. Pasted on the original cardboard. Good-fair condition. Cracks and minor tears.

Photo album with photographs of the life of the Jewish community and the synagogue in Moscow under the Communist government. 1978.
Dedication [in Yiddish] from the Moscow community to the Polish Communities Committee.
32 photographs, with handwritten descriptions [in Yiddish], some dated. The photographs portray the synagogue in Moscow and the religious life within the synagogue throughout the year. Photos of people praying on the festivals and High Holidays, blowing the shofar, removing the Torah scroll from the Holy Ark, Passover Seder, Purim feast, Prayer for Peace, setting for a Kiddush, a wedding, etc. The rabbi of the community Rabbi Fishman and the president Shalom Kleinman are seen in some of the photos. There are photographs from the 25th anniversary of the president of the community with the participation of rabbis from abroad: Rabbi Teil of New Jersey and Rabbi Hechtman of Canada.
The Great Synagogue in Moscow was open during the Communist government under the probing eyes of KGB agents. Only few Jews were permitted to pray there, primarily old people, and this privilege too was only granted as lip service which the Soviet government paid to the world. These photos clearly portray the spiritual destitution of the community.
32 photographs, varying size. Placed in an album, 28 cm. Good condition, few stains.
