Yad Vashem Photo Archive

Yad Vashem recently launched an amazing online photo archive. Yad Vashem is "the Jewish people’s living memorial to the Holocaust [and] safeguards the memory of the past and imparts its meaning for future generations." I've been wandering through it for the last hour and am amazed by it's breadth. One thing for sure...it's a great antidote to the idea that Jew's before the Shoah all looked like extra's from Fiddler on the Roof.
