Re: [Cz-L] Jewish Museum in Czernowitz.

Mimi,
  There are no other Museums in the Palace.
   It is "our Museum " all right.
    They will expose Hassidic garments ,it says.
      Why not ask Maita Prout ?
       The way you conclude with a " Fledermaus " quotation is so disarming
          that all my charges evaporate.
           This is to the unsinkable Mimi Taylor.
