The only known image of the Oheb Zedek synagogue in East Pittsburgh, Pa. was used in two volumes of local history. The first, a 1970 volume celebrating the “Diamond Jubilee” of the borough, provides a brief history of the congregation. The second, from a 1995 volume celebrating the centennial of the borough, provides a brief history of the congregation and a list of prominent families.
