Barbalatt of Kew Gardens Hills, N.Y., inspect the silver Rothschild Menorah (1850-1860) on loan
from the Hebrew Union (ollege-Skirball Museum in Los Angeles to the Yeshiva University
Museum in New York City. The lamp was formerly in the collection of the Frankfurt Jewish
museum, established in 1901 as the Rothschild Museum. It was recovered by the Jewish C ultural
Reconstruction and given to Hebrew’ Union College in 1952. In 1972, when the Skirhall Museum
was founded, it was transferred to the Skirhall from Cincinnati. The lamp’s coat of arms is that of
the Rothschilds, granted by imperial decree to the family along with baronial status in 1882. It is
