Beilis Trial – Three Postcards – 1910s

Three souvenir postcards - Beilis Trial, Russian, [1910s], Yiddish.
Image of Beilis appears on two of the postcards surrounded by other figures related to the trial; on another postcard appears Beilis's image with public in court behind him.
Menachem Mendel Beilis was accused of murdering a Ukrainian Christian child named Andrei Yushichinsky in April 1911 to use his blood for preparing Passover Matzot. Beilis was imprisoned by false testimony and his trial began in September 1913. On the background of "the murder" and the trial, an incitement campaign was organized against the Jews. After three years of imprisonment, Beilis was acquitted. After the 1917 revolution, a committee of inquiry was established to investigate the case. Its findings proved that the government knew the true circumstances and staged the trial for anti-Semitic reasons.
Good condition, a few stains.
