Paragraph 1    A fund-raising poster for Talmud Thora & Jeschiwath Chaje-Olam in Jerusalem, which also has a warehouse for Etrogim and for Olive Oil. In flowery language, the poster, which has a blank for the name of their representative to be filled in, sends blessings from Jerusalem and asks that their representative be received with open arms and with generosity.

It is signed The guardians of the holy watch , Gabbai and administrators of the house (meaning the Temple).

The illustration is a model of the Talmud Thorah and Jewchiwath Chaje-Olam.

The information at the top of this poster is in both Hebrew and in Russian. It indicates that the Yeshiva is for Ashkenazi Kollels, including Jews of Russia,Poland, Austria and Galicia.

The reverse side of the poster has approbations from various Rabbis, including R. Samuel Salant, R. Yehoshua Leib Diskin, R. Shenur Zalman, previously of Lublin. R. Hayyim Hizkiyahu Medini, et al.

          
Detailed
Description
   Yeshiva Chaye Olam, with a Talmud Torah of twenty-two classrooms -- each classroom today is an Arab home. (A Talmud Torah consists of eight grades, and here there were three parallel classes.) Part of the building is now unused. That part was never finished because the Arabs brought a case against it in 1927 when the yeshiva wanted to start a new wing. They weren't able to finish it, so they just have the walls up. The yeshiva is close to what is the holiest part of Jerusalem for Jews.
