A broadside issued by the "The Union of Rabbis in Austria A.Z. [American Zone], by the Central Jewish Committee". Mimeographed manuscript. Stamped with the official stamp of the Union. Salzburg, the eve of Rosh Chodesh Sivan, 1947.
A broadside issued by the Union of Rabbis in Austria, announcing the 20th of Sivan as a "day of repentance, prayer and charity and a fast until 13:30 by saying Selichot for the 20th of Sivan after the morning prayer, A.M. [Avinu Malkeinu] and Psalms" (Hebrew). The broadside announces the 20th of Sivan as the Yahrzeit for those of She'erit Hapletah whose relatives' death dates are unknown. Stamped with the official stamp of the "Union of Rabbis in central Austria – in Salzburg".
At the end of World War II, there was a disagreement among European rabbis as to whether to announce a special day to commemorate the victims of the Holocaust. Among those objecting to the idea were the Rebbes of Gur and Belz, Rabbi Yitzchok Zev Halevi Soloveitchik and the Chazon Ish, who claimed that in our generation it is not permitted to announce a new permanent fast. The rabbis of Hungary and Austria announced the 20th of Sivan as a day of fast, claiming that this day had traditionally been a day of fasting among the Jews of Poland, commemorating the riots of 1648 (the Cossack riots).
[1] leaf, approx. 21X30 cm. Good condition. Fold lines and minor creases. Stains (slightly browned margins). Several tears to edges.

"To our friends in Palestine, from the children of the camps in Vienna", an album with 20 photographs. Vienna (several of the photographs are from elsewhere), 1947-1948.
The photographs, mounted on the leaves of the album and captioned by hand, mostly document students and teachers in Vienna after the Holocaust. One photograph depicts a circle of children holding hands, captioned (in Hebrew): "The Hebrew School in Vienna" (presumably, the Hebrew school managed by Eliyahu Rotenberg). The photographs depict Hebrew lessons, Jewish holidays (Purim, Passover and Shavuot), ceremony of flying doves for the safety of the fighters in the Israeli War of Independence, a flag of Israel hanging at the front of the school on the day of the establishment of the State of Israel, and more. Several photographs at the end of the album presumably document the students of the school on their way to immigrate to Palestine: children carrying bags and suitcases leaving the camp, a photograph taken on board of the SS HaTikvah, and more. One photograph is stamped on the margin with the stamp of the photographer Wolf Scharf and another photograph is stamped on verso with the stamp of the photographer Hans Gellner.
Approx. 17.5 cm. Good-fair condition. Stains, creases and minor blemishes to leaves and some photographs. One photograph is attached to front board with tape. Cloth-covered binding tied with string, with tears and blemishes.
