Despite a distinguished life and a remarkable written and intellectual legacy, history has not been kind to Nathan Birnbaum. While alive, he was acknowledged not only as one of the founders of central European Zionism but also as a major figure in Jewish politics and thought. As a journalist and essayist, he contributed to and was read widely in a staggering number of Jewish periodicals in central Europe—several of which, such as the first Jewish nationalist periodical in the German language, Selbst-Emancipation—he founded and edited himself. Yet today, little of his legacy is known, and his massive literary and intellectual production has received surprisingly little attention from Jewish historians.

The Thoroughbred 400 is the fanciest washing machine at the Whale and Wash coin-operated laundry on Manhattan Avenue. In fact, there is a line of them beckoning customers hoping to get the grime and sweat out of their clothes. The machines are a relatively new addition to the small shop, but what they do is the same thing washing machines have been doing here for decades: fill with water and spin around in circles. For those who don't want to deal with the hassle, for a fee, [George Birnbaum] will do the laundry. The shop also boasts a cleaners and does alterations. And probably alone among laundries anywhere, there are locked post office boxes into which Birnbaum patiently delivers mail into the appropriate slots every day. The 1933 relic has been in several shops around town until finally arriving here a few years ago. 1 pic; [Nicolas Giraudo] tosses clothing to his mother, [Patricia Giraudo], as it comes out of a washer at the Whale and Wash laundry in Manhattan Beach, turning the chore into more of a game.; Credit: STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER -- BRAD GRAVERSON
