Traditional Jewish Papercuts : An Inner World of Art and Symbol/Brand New/2002. Brand New still sealed in Publisher's shrink wrap. The making of devotional papercuts is a relatively little-known aspect of traditional Jewish folk art and culture.

While many ritual objects treasured today as "Judaica" were crafted from expensive materials, often by gentile artisans executing paid commissions, even the poorest Jew could afford paper, pencil, and penknife with which to make a papercut as a deeply-felt, personal expression of faith. Many of these works are gems of unaffected artistic creation. More than any other form of Jewish art, the surviving old Jewish papercuts evoke the spirit and lore of the East-European shtetl and the North African mellah.
