This new edition takes the place
of the earlier Jewish calendar
which went only to 1941. The new
calendar goes ahead much farther
and goes back to the year 1924.
To find Yahrzeit dates, Bar
Mitzvahs and other anniversaries
is a task of a few moments with
this convenient book at hand.
Jewish holidays up to the year 1965
are also listed on a special page.
To receive a free copy of the
new calendar, merely send a post-
