Herbert and Eileen Bernard Museum of Judaica

for “The Writing on the Wall: A Catalogue of Judaica Broadsides from the Valmadonna Trust Library”

About

“The committee felt this catalog deserved an honorable mention as it represents a significant addition to scholarship,” noted Faulds. “The book highlights a largely unknown and unexplored subject area while also providing access to a unique, privately held collection. The entries are thoroughly described and illustrated with high quality reproductions as part of an overall handsome design.”
