Marking the New Year - From Our Photo Archive

One custom associated with Rosh Hashanah is the sending of New Years cards to family and friends. Presented in this section are New Years cards from the Photo Archive in Yad Vashem that were sent before, during and after the Holocaust.

Pictured here are two Jewish men in the synagogue following the Torah reading. The Hebrew greeting on top reads: “May you be inscribed for a good year.” Yad Vashem Photo Archives 181g06
