Beschreibung:

Two photograph albums containing about 340 photographs of Rabbi Moshe Bernstein, the founder of Brit Yeshurun and a Revisionist activist in the Displaced Persons camps in Europe. Germany (Waldstadt-Poking, Zeilsheim, Vilseck, and more), U.S. and Israel, ca. 1946-1960 (most are from the late 1940s-early 1950s). Documented events include: The national convention of Brit Hatzohar HaMeuhedet (United Zionist Revisionists) in Germany, held at the Waldstadt-Poking camp in November 1946; the Betar convention at Zeilsheim commemorating the Tel Hai affair; memorial service for Dov Gruner, one of the "Olei HaGardom" (12 members of Irgun and Lehi executed by the British); Talmud Torah and Beit Ya'akov class at the Vilseck Displaced Persons camp; Hanukkah celebrations of Brit Yeshurun; photographs of the speakers at the first convention of Brit Yeshurun in Germany (signed in the negative: "Foto B. Berneman"); and more. Some of the photographs are from a later period, documenting Bernstein's public career and private life. Albums: 41X28.5 cm; 24X34 cm. Photographs: 13X8 cm on average. Most of the photographs are pasted or stapled on to the album leaves. Condition varies. Foxing, folds and holes to some of the photographs. Open tears to a few photographs. Albums in poor condition. Detached leaves, torn and damaged.
