    THIS IS A BIT MYSTERIOUS.IF THESE VIDIOS ARE RARE-HOW DO THEY HAVE THEM AND WHY ARE THEY RARE?I BELEVE THAT NO VIDEO OF THE REBBE SHOULD BE RARE,THEY SHOULD BE OUT IN THE OPEN SO OUR KINDERLACH CAN APPRECIATE THEM.

    It appears that Kos shel Brocho is later than 1960 , since you can see the two doors behind the Rebbe , its from the construction of the new shul built where the large succah was in the yard built in 1962
