A fascinating detailed chart depicting the branches of Chassidism from its origins with the Ba’al Shem Tov. The numerous chassidic dynasties are symbolically depicted as branches and off-shoots from a central tree representing the Grand Master, the Ba’al Shem Tov. The printer adds at bottom; “Only copies bearing the Printer’s copyright stamp are original.”
