Album "Der Beilis Prozess." The Beilis trial, [Lodz] 1913. Rare.
A rare album "Der Beilis Prozess." Photographs and sketches of the participants in the Beilis trial. Lodz, 1913.
[12] pages. 12x17 cm. A historical album of the Beilis trial which was published soon after Beilis was acquitted in 1913. The album displays, through photographs and illustrations, with titles in Yiddish and Russian, the main participants of the trial: the prosecutors, the experts for the defense, Beilis and his family. 
The Beilis trial was held as the result of a blood libel in the Ukraine which excited the whole world in the years 1911-1913. A Jew by the name of Menachem Mendel Beilis was accused, based on false testimony, with the murder of a young Ukranian boy, in order to use his blood in his Pesach matzot.  Experts from the Zionist movement, as well as Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Schneerson (the Rayatz) and Rabbi Levi Yitzchak Schneerson on behalf of the Admor the Rashab, were involved in his defense. In the end Beilis was acquitted, and after the revolution of 1917 it was discovered that all of the different levels of the ruling class - from the Czar, through the Minister of Justice  to the prosecutor - were involved in the blood libel, and some of them were even sentenced to death.
