Monumental catalogue of this justifiably famous and pioneering exhibition. “It marked an epoch in the history of Jewish collecting and the development of the study of Jewish ritual art. (The) elaborate catalogue...is even today one of the most desirable works in this field.” C. Roth, Introduction: Catalogue of the Jewish Museum London (1974)
