Description
   Polemical poster against the hasidim of Belz by the followers of R. Hayyim Elazer Rabinowitz, Admor of Munkacs. In 1914, R. Issachar Dov (1854–1927) fled to Hungary when the war front reached Belz, and lived in Újfehértó where he succeeded in winning many Hungarian Jews to Belz Hasidism. In 1918 he moved to Munkacs (Mukacevo ) and became embroiled in a bitter quarrel with the zaddik of Munkács which gave rise to a voluminous exchange of polemics. In 1921 R. Issachar Dov returned to Galicia and settled first in Holschitz, near Jaroslaw, moving back to Belz in 1925.
