Dear Safranim,

Here is some more information.

The Dorot Jewish Division at The New York Public Library is the oldest
publicly accessible collection of Jewish materials in the United States.
Comprising more than 250,000 items spanning almost 800 years of Jewish
civilization and traditions across the globe, the Division’s collections
are internationally recognized for their rich legacy, magnitude, and
breadth. Since its founding in 1897, the Dorot Jewish Division has served
as a central reference hub by the compilers of modern Jewish encyclopedias
and dictionaries. In 2022, when the Division marked its 125th anniversary,
plans were put in place to make a range of materials from the collections
more widely accessible to researchers around the world through a major
online exhibition, which is now available to all.

The artifacts in this online exhibition have been chosen for their
historical significance, originality, and artistry, including materials
that reflect the history and vibrant culture of Jewish communities all over
the world, from the Renaissance to the 20th century. Explore more than 100
items from the collections in our online exhibition, including rare
manuscripts; treasures of early book printing; materials describing the
meeting of tradition and modernity in the 18th and 19th centuries; vital
documents that bear witness to the tragedies of the 20th century and the
resilience of Jewish communities; and items that offer insight into Jewish
life in New York and the United States.

>From February 17 to April 3, 2024, a selection of items from the exhibition
are on display in the McGraw Rotunda on the third floor of The New York
Public Library's Stephen A. Schwarzman Building
.

*This exhibition is organized by The New York Public Library and curated by
Lyudmila Sholokhova, Curator of the Dorot Jewish Division.*
Sincerely,

--

Hello, thanks for responding..
I messaged you about, I was looking for a 1923 film, called. Der eisenkonig.    
Which means,   the iron king. Starring jewish strongman, zishe (siegmund) 
breitbart. 

Hi, no I haven't found the film yet. It is I think an Australian film. And 
breitbart was a Jewish hero to the Jewish people. Any help, or any film, 
newsreels etc on siegmund breitbart, is greatly appreciated. I hope you can 
locate it. I heard there was a copy in tel aviv, in the 1980s, until terrorists 
destroyed that city.
