893.1Not much helpCLT::CLTVAX::dickDick Schoeller - Failed XperimentFri Feb 23 1990 17:3717
Edgar,

I see that you're posting from Puerto Rico.  I don't think any of us are
likely to be much help for finding something local to you.  Are you hoping
to buy while travelling or by mail?

If by mail, you could probably buy through Israel Book Shop (address below).
However, you are more likely to get a good price through a more direct purchase.
On that, I can't be much help.  Maybe someone else can.

	Israel Book Shop
	410 Harvard St.
	Brookline, MA 02146
	ph. (617)566-7113

L'hit,
Gavriel
893.2Try Shaarei Tzedek HospitalSPICES::REISSFern Alyza ReissTue Feb 27 1990 20:3116
Hi Edgar,

You can purchase Encyclopedia Judaica through Keter Publishers or
through Shaarei Tzedek Hospital (both are in New York.)  Keter is
the original publisher of EJ, and Shaarei Tzedek sells the set as
a fundraiser.  Shaarei Tzedek used to offer a better price.  

I happen to know this because in my former life, as a magazine editor
for MOMENT, I doubled as advertising agent, and tried to finagle
a free set for the MOMENT office, in return for advertising space
(which nobody at MOMENT had ever thought to sell before.)  The
ploy was so successful I ended up with three EJs--one for the office,
one for then-publisher Leibel Fein, and (coincidentally :~) one for me.
It's a wonderful encyclopedia; I use it constantly.  Enjoy it!
