Weekly Photo: From Days Gone By

Crownheights.info and Lubavitch Archives present this vintage photograph of seven Chassidim posing for a portrait. Can you identify those in the picture, when and where it was taken?

Answer to last week’s photo in the extended article.

Answer to last week’s photo:

This picture was photographed in the late 1960s by P. Garvin. It depicts Reb Shimon Rubin, Rabbi Yaakov Friedman and Rabbi Hillel Levinson having an animated conversation in 770.

The collection of Garnvin’s pictures was obtained with the assistance of Rabbi Moshe Bogomilsky.
