It’s coming to the end of the year, and we thought this would be a good time to showcase some of this year’s new acquisitions. Below are samplings of this years donated materials. The end of the year  is also a good time for you, our readers, to clean out your closets and storage areas to see what items you may want to donate to the Jewish Historical Society of North Jersey.
