This is either because the members were interested in such matters or the editors (often professional writers) were, or both. Thus, in the Argentinian annual, Der holts-industryal (1896-1956), edited for many years by the writer, G. Sapozhnikov, one finds that stories, poems and essays take up the greater part of each volume. The authors are such celebrated writers as H. Leyvik, Avrom Sutskever, Khayim Grade, Yoysef Opatoshu as well as Argentinian and other South American writers. There are also book reviews and notices in this Oysgabe fun fareyn far holts- un ayzn- industryaln in argentine. The Argentine textile manufacturers were no less literary and the same editor edited their Zamlbukh (q.v.) on the occasion of their association's twenty-fifth anniversary.” (Yiddish Literary and LinguisticPeriodicals and Miscellanies, A Selective Annotated Bibliography, by Leonard Prager with the help of A.A. Greenbaum). Includes portrait of Eva Peron, and advertisements for woodworking machines. Subjects: Buenos Aires – Yiddish – Industrialists – Yearbook. Yiddish – Buenos Aires – Literature.
