Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

The Jay Ginsburg collection contains materials from 1958 to 1966 including correspondence, directories, conference/convention materials, newclippings, speeches and programs. Many papers are related to different aspects of the B'nai B'irth Youth Organization including mostly its male wing, Aleph Zadik Aleph, and some of its female wing, B'nai B'irth Girls. The collection contains several noteworthy texts such as an AZA Rituals Manual, several Banquet programs and personal notes to Jay Ginsburg, state of the order address by Grand Aleph Godol Steven H. Morrison, and a proclamation by Houston Mayor Louie Welch declaring April 9th B'nai B'irth Organization Day. The materials are in good condition and would be ideal for researchers interested in the organizational, social, and educational aspects of the Jewish boys' AZA chapter in Houston, TX.
