In connection with Chof Beis Shevat, RebbeDrive presents one the earliest known footage of the Rebbe, after he accepted the leadership of the Chabad-Lubavitch movement.
The new footage documents the Yud Shevat Farbrengens of 5712 and 5714.
Parts of these clips were released right after Gimmel Tammuz, however with the equipment available today a much better picture was able to be restored.
This new footaged has been restored from the archives of Reb Avrohom Gerlitzky.
5712
5714
Gorgeous. Thank you
1) also in the video when the Frierdiker Rebbe signs the documents to become an American citizen the Rebbe is in the film
2) it is also known of the existents of a film from Yud Shvat 5711
This is the earlyest known video from after yud shevat
But the first known video of the rebbe that exist is from 5706-1946 by rabbi yossi golstein-uncle yossi wedding.
Good question but as of now there is unfortunately no audio for these videos.
Hopefully we will find videos from those years with audio.
Is the instrumental music added because there is no audio to these films? Or what is the story?
Personally I would love to see something like this with the actual audio if that is available.
Thanks for sharing.
These films were taken by Rabbi Elye Gross of blesed memory , the video “40 yrs of world leadership produced by Sholom Goldstein has this film footage plus film from early years Tishri etc . Filmed by Rabbi Yosef Goldstein
Beautiful thank you so much for sharing
