(interesting how the Maharash wore a white Yarmulke while ceasing to wear white - even on Shabbos - like his father the Tzemach Tzedek did.)
(the Rebbetzin Shterna Soroh's Korban Minchah Siddur. Do they still make Korban Minchah Nusach Ari Siddurim? I've never seen one.)
(Kittel of the Frierdige Rebbe, with the initials JS embroidered on it.)

Nice shots! Now I see that the origin of the Yerushalmi/Breslov white yarmulka goes back to Europe and is not some sort of Yerushalmi invention.
Unfortunately, I think that only Kehos now publishes Nusach Ari siddurim, and I do not think they publish a Korban Mincha siddur.
What a signature by the Rebbetzin! And to think that most of her peers couldn't even write at that time. It seems like they were quite advanced in Russia.
When did he wear that yarmulke ?
Maybe it was davka for yomim noraim, hence the white color ?
Looks like an interesting exhibit, maybe I should go and check it out. ;-) Maybe they should have an official Tzig day there for chevre from this blog ? ;-)
White yarmulkes were quite common amongst Chassidim, and they wore them at all times. Many other Tzaddikim are known to have worn them.
The librarian is a friend, so maybe we can make a Tzig day at the Library. Any other people interested?
Sure Tzig! Sign me up
me 3.
Yes, I would be interested as well!
Interesting with the JS initials on the kittel.
A friend has a shirt that used to belong to the Satmar rebbe zt'l and it too has his initials emroided - JT.
Must be a rebbishe thing....
How do you know that the Mahara"sh did not wear white?
