An Album of Volkovysk Groups

Ed note: Because of the right-to-left Hebrew script, all names are given from right to left. The writer of the captions seems to have restricted the ‘right-to-left’ designation to the first mention only. Consequently, a right-to-left enumeration is assumed for all rows in a picture, even if not stated explicitly.
