The Jewish Bakers' Voice (in Yiddish: Idishe Bekers Shtime) was a trade paper for Jewish bakers published from New York City, the United States.[1][2] It was printed in English and Yiddish.[1] It was issued weekly on Fridays.[1] According to the Ayer Directory of Publication of 1952 it was founded in 1916, whilst a 1948 issue of Industrial Marketing states that the publication began in 1927.[1][3] The publication was issued by the Jewish Bakers' Voice, Inc.[1][3] It was linked to the New York City Local 338 of the International Bagel Bakers Union.[4] The offices of Jewish Bakers' Voice were located on 320 Broadway.[1][3]

In 1934 Jewish Bakers' Voice was brought to the Brooklyn Supreme Court in a 450,000 USD damage suit by the Certified Yeast Company. The Jewish Bakers' Voice had accused the Certified Yeast Company (a Jewish-owned business) of having imported German yeast under a false name (in breach of the Jewish boycott of German goods).[5][6] As of 1952 Morris Nagourney was the editor of the publication.[1] At this point it had a circulation of 1,439 copies.[1]
