From the collection of the Rebbe Rayatz daughter Chana Gurary.

As described in the accompanying letter of testation by Chana Gurary.

November 12, 1989

I hereby gift to Shaul Shimon Deutsch, the photo of my sister graduating a local Grammer School.

She took courses in Russian Literature, I do not remember the name of the school. She has passed away I, therefore, cant ask her anymore.  Chana Gurary

Historical information:

Rabbi Deutsch published a biography series on the Lubavitch Dynasty titled "Larger Than Life."

When he interviewed Chana, She could not remember the name of the school her sister, The Rebbetzin attended and graduated at. She did remember when the Rebbetzin was about 17 or 18 and took courses in the Russian language. Rabbi Deutsch published the Rebbetzin’s college records from the Berlin university, in volume two of larger than life. 


This Rare Photo is here offered In honour of the Rebbetzin’s 33rd Yahrtzeit

(March 16, 1901 – February 10, 1988). 

Possibly, Rostov Circa, 1918
