1946Original Wraps. 12mo. 16 pages. 18 cm. First edition. Critical pamphlet contemporary to the Nuremberg Trials on their historic significance, with a summary of their content and purpose, and a critique; argues that the atrocities committed in Poland against the Polish population (7 million murdered) has been slighted in their exposure in favor of atrocities committed on the soil of the USSR and its satellites. The author gives numerous examples of specific atrocities committed in Poland which should have been included in the trial proceedings, lambasts the trial for not mentioning the liquidation of the Warsaw Ghetto; ends with the argument that 'totalitarianism' was not utilized as a category in the trial proceedings as this would immediately point to the continuing existence of other totalitarian states, namely, the USSR.

No Date [1934]. [2] typewritten pages, 30cm x 21 cm. 2-page membership list from the first full-year of Hitlers full power in Germany, showing approximately 75 current members with city and address. Agudath Israel was founded in Kattowitz, German Empire (now Katowice, Poland), in 1912, with the purpose of providing an umbrella organization for observant Jews who opposed the Zionist movement. In Erez Israel, Agudat Yisrael was established as a branch of this movement, to provide opposition to the organized Jewish community (the "Yishuv"). One of its most authoritative spokesmen against the formation of a Jewish State, the Dutch poet Jacob Israël de Haan, was assassinated by the Haganah in 1924. In the wake of the Holocaust, anti-Zionist rabbis who led Agudat Israel recognized the great utility of a Jewish state, and it became non-Zionist, rather than anti-Zionist. It did not actively participate in the creation of Israel, but it ceased its opposition to it. In 1933, it entered into an agreement with the Jewish Agency, according to which Agudat Yisrael would receive 6.5% of the immigration permits. Eventually, at the eve of the Israeli Declaration of Independence (1948), Agudat Yisrael yielded to pressure from the Zionist movement, and has been a participant in most governments since that time. age staining, few tears, very brittle.

19401st edition. Folio. Newspaper. Illustrated throughout. Includes many advertisements and numerous personal family announcements. Following the Kristallnacht pogroms of November 1938, Jewish life in Germany and Czechoslovakia was even further curtailed and all remaining Jewish newspapers were shut down by the government. In their place, the Nazi Party ordered the creation of a single, new Jewish newspaper, "Das Jüdische Nachrichtenblatt, " that would be directly under Gestapo control. It was published concurrently in Berlin, Vienna and Prague and was occupied to a large extent with announcing the ever-increasing number of anti-Semitic discriminations, orders and exclusions imposed by the Reich government. Over the course of its history, the editors of the Jüdische Nachrichtenblatt were Leo Kreindler (1938-42) and Willi Pless (1942-43) . The Berlin edition ran from the 23rd November, 1938 until the final issue of 4th June 1943. The Prague edition continued until 1945. In a ghoulish twist of Nazi irony, Gentiles were forbidden from reading the Jüdische Nachrichtenblatt yet the newspaper's targeted readership, the Jews, were literally hounded to their deaths by the very authorities who presided over the newspaper's ownership! See Reiner Burger, Von Goebbels Gnaden: "Jüdisches Nachrichtenblatt" 1938-1943 (2001) . A mixed collection of 102 issues from Berlin and Prague sold at auction in 2015 for 9225.00 USD. These issues were at one point bound, but the binding was at some point removed. The newsprint is brown and quite fragile, with edgwear and old dampstains, but there is generally little text loss, except to a few letters on the lower outer margins of the final 10 issues. Now housed in an acid-free sleeved portfolio, with each issue in a separate clear sleeve for easy protected viewing. Fair condition, but very rare, very important, and very powerful. (kh-5-47)

19461st edition. Original paper wrappers. 8vo, 20 cm, 17 pages. An early post-Holocaustaddress delivered to the Commonwealth Club of California, at the Palace Hotel, San Francisco, April 5, 1946, by Rabbi Irving F. Reichert of Congregation Emanu-El, San Francisco, opposing Zionism on general principal but calling for Palestine to be an a democratic haven for Jewish Holocaust refugees. This address has been privately printed through the courtesy of a number of friends. He talks about the experience of the Jews in the Holocaust and particularly focuses on Zionism, and the issues that arise. He also clarifies that the Jews are not a nationality nor a nation, and he argues that with the predictions of the low percentage of Jews that would end up in a Jewish state, there wont be a Jewish nationality even with a Jewish state. He says, The American Jewish Community today presents a paradox as far as Palestine is concerned. We are hopelessly divided in our views regarding the political future of Palestine. Many of us are unalterably opposed for reasons of deep conviction, to the establishment of a Jewish state. We are, however, completely united in our conviction that as a democratic commonwealth Palestine can and should provide a home for our disinherited and downtrodden fellow Jews who seek its shelter.

20021st edition, original paper wrappers. 8vo, iv (English) + 27 (Hebrew) pages. In Hebrew with additional English abstract and title page. The Eichmann trial was one of the most important events in pre-1967 Israel. The article attempts to compare the reactions of two witnesses to the trial, Hannah Arendt and Haim Gouri, to the proceedings. These writers represent two conflicting perspectives- a Jewish-universalist one on the one hand, and a Jewish-Israeli one on the other .Interestingly, the insight of both Arendt and Gouri played a role in subverting the prevalent attitudes toward the memory of the Holocaust in Israeli society. While Arendts assertions became a basis of a tendency to universalize the Holocaust, removing it from a specific Jewish context, Gouris observations led to a strong identification with Diaspora Jewry. The Eichmann trial and the new perceptions in its wake marked the beginning of the decline of the concept of Negation of the Diaspora and the acceptance of the Holocaust as a major identity-forming factor in Israeli society.
