Image, 1848-1950

  

Scope and Contents

These image clippings provide a sampling of portrayals of the Jewish people in publications dating from the late 19th to early 20th centuries. While a large portion of this series consists of antisemitic caricatures, clippings also include more positive illustrations of Jewish holiday scenes, society events, institutions, synagogues, and prominent figures. These have been organized alphabetically by topic.
