Mendele Personal Notices & Announcements April 24, 2012
To minimize wear and tear on the untershames, three requests: 1. Send time-sensitive notices well in advance. 2. Send material as plain text: no HTML, other coding, or attachments;and write MENDELE PERSONALS in the subject line. 3. Correspond directly with the person who or organization which has posted the notice, *not* with your ever-beleaguered untershames. _______________________________________________________________________ Date: Wed, 18 Apr 2012 01:24:41 -0400 From: Shaul Seidler-Feller <[email protected]> Subject: Copies of Beys Yankev Zhurnal, Ortodoksishe Yugent-bleter, Kinder-gorten Tayere Mendelyaner, I am doing a project on Salomo Birnbaum, a Yiddish linguist of note and the son of Nathan Birnbaum, and am looking for some of his published works in Yiddish. Many of these works appeared in the Beys Yankev Zhurnal in the 20s and 30s, but, so far as I can tell, the only public institution in the New York area which has copies of those issues is the Agudath Israel of America Archives, and their microfilm machine is currently not working properly. Does anyone know of other New York-area libraries/archives that might have these journals? The same, incidentally, goes for the 1931 issues of the Ortodoksishe Yugent-bleter and of the journal Kinder-gorten. I would very much appreciate any pointers you could give me . A dank in foroys, Shaul Seidler-Feller, Yeshiva University ____________________________________________________________________ Please do not use the "reply" key when writing to Mendele.
