The Jewish Publication Society of America is a society for the publication in English of books of Jewish content founded on June 3, 1888, as an annual membership organization. It was the third attempt to establish such a body in the United States. Its two predecessors were both called the American Jewish Publication Society; the first was founded by Isaac Leeser in Philadelphia in 1845 and discontinued in 1851, and the second was founded by a New York group and lasted from 1873 to 1875. The third effort, responding to the needs of a rapidly growing Jewish population, proved successful. The organizational meeting was called in Philadelphia, then still considered the cultural capital of the United States, by Rabbi Joseph Krauskopf and Dr. Solomon Solis-Cohen. The Society functions through a board of trustees, usually with a businessman as president. (EJ, Grayzel) In good condition. (HOLO2-8-5)
