GIVING THE NATIONAL MUSEUM of American
Jewish History launched a virtual tour of
its core exhibit on Nov. 14, digitizing the
museum’s permanent exhibits across the
building’s three stories.

Th e project’s completion was enabled
by the undisclosed fi nancial support of
Jewish philanthropist George Blumenthal,
who has been involved with NMAJH
periodically since 2014 when he and
frequent collaborator and Israeli digiti-
zation expert Ardon Bar-Hama digitized
NMAJH’s “Chasing Dreams: Baseball and
Becoming American” special exhibit.

NMAJH to help digitize the 2014 special
exhibition, ‘Chasing Dreams: Baseball and
Becoming American’, I’ve been interested

exhibition,” Blumenthal said in a press
release. “As a Jewish American, I know

our people in this country. Now, NMAJH

WHEN ASKED WHY LATKES are his
annual Chanukah bestseller, Schlesinger’s
Deli owner Allan Domb echoed Tevye
from “Fiddler on the Roof.”
“It’s tradition,” Domb said.

Other deli owners in the Philadelphia
area said the same thing. To nobody’s
surprise, latkes, or potato pancakes, are

each year.

Jeremy Th omas, the owner of Manny’s
in Holland, sells thousands of them
during the Festival of Lights. Th is is triple
and sometimes quadruple the number he
sells in a normal week.

Th e same thing is happening this
year, too, according to Th omas and other
deli owners.
