Photo Section -- Overview
View the original Kletsk Yizkor Book, in Hebrew/Yiddish, in image form at the New York Public Library (NYPL). View the Table of Contents and the Name Index of the Kletsk Memorial Book Translation Project at JewishGen. 

In the original: the photos are reproduced in a section of glossy paper inserted between print pages 172 and 175. In this photo section, pages – except the first– are numbered with Hebrew digits. For our use here, this numbering is translated to English and retained in the labeling of the images. Thus the second image on Plate ה is labeled “5.2"; the thumbnail image file is
“tn_5.2.jpg" while the full size image is “5.2.jpg".

Initially, the photos are presented in the same order as in the print book. As the captions and detail texts are translated and interpreted, the original order may be modified for clarity in a web-based, rather than print presentation.

Caption Translations: Hannah Kadmon

[H+Y] = original caption in Hebrew and Yiddish
[H] = original caption in Hebrew
[Y] = original caption in Yiddish
* The captions for these photos are identical
