Weekly Photo: From Days Gone By

Lubavitch Archives

Crownheights.info and Lubavitch Archives present this vintage photograph of bochurim departing on Merkos Shlichus. Can you identify who is in the picture, when and where it was taken?

Answer to last week’s photos in the extended article

Answer to last week’s photos:

The people in last week’s pictures were correcly identified: Monyeh Wolowovsky and Berel Levin (top) and Reb Chatzkel Brod (bottom) dancing at the wedding of Menachem and Faiga (nee Shusterman) Wolff in the early 1970s.
