Rare advertising booklet for the magnificent Chachmei Lublin yeshivah under the leadership of Rabbi Meir Shapira, arranged by Nathan Gurman. Warsaw, 1931. Yiddish.
The booklet contains printed articles and historical information about the yeshivah, and many photographs of its activities. The photographs show, among others, Rabbi Meir Shapira, the ‘Minchat Elazar’ of Munkacs, the ‘Imrei Emet’ of Gur, and the Admo”r of Chortkov, as well as a lot of the yeshivah’s students, many of whom later became known as extraordinary Talmudic scholars.
Printed jacket cover, very beautiful.
A photograph of the miniature model of the Beit HaMikdash displayed in the yeshivah is printed on leaf 17. Page 25 bears a photograph of the immense library that contained over 30,000 books!
