Description

Gateshead Talmudical College (Yeshiva), Gateshead, UK. This picture is of great significance to Anglo-Jewish history and the history of yeshivot. This is a group photo of the students and staff of the famous Gateshead Yeshiva probably from the early 1930s. Photos such as these are very rare.

This is a very Haredi institute (yeshiva). But the boys are dressed completely different from how Haredim dress today, although Haredim today claim that they are dressed how Jews in Europe have dressed for centuries! Why are the boys in caps and hats and the Rabbis, the two in the middle, bare-headed? Today it is exceptional for any haredi male to be clean shaven. The two Rabbis are Nachman Landinski and Eliezer Kahan, not sure which is which. Photographer unknown. The author saw this photo in "Gateshead" by Miriam Dansky. My mother owns the original which I have scanned.
