PINKHES
VILKENFELD (b. 1897)
Until 1935 he lived in Torne
(Tarnov, Tarnów), Galicia, where he worked as a bookkeeper. He was the author of a Yiddish-language
textbook for bookkeeping: Der nayer
koyfmenisher rekhenmayster far zelbst-unterrikht (The new commercial
calculator for self-instruction) (Toarnov, 1934), 82 pp. This volume, which was highly useful due to a
governmental decree that all small shops must keep their books, was extremely
successful. He lived until WWII in
Cracow and Lemberg. He subsequently
disappeared without a trace.
