A wooden box with inlaid carved stone plates made by a detainee in the Cyprus detention camps, 5709 (1948/1949).
The lid of the box is inlaid with a plate depicting a group of exiles on a wooden raft, some standing and some sitting with their personal belongings. The composition is identified with works illustrating the verse "On the rivers of Babylon there we sat and we wept when we remembered Zion", depicting the exiles of Babylon mourning Jerusalem. One of the most familiar of these works is a work by E.M. Lilien, belonging to a group of works echoing Zionist themes. Presumably, the artist was inspired by Lilien's work (but possibly by other works in the same vein) when conceiving the image on this stone plate, an image expressing the situation of the illegal immigrants in the "exile of Cyprus", as it was commonly called. The exiles are not standing on the river bank as in the original but are surrounded by waves – the sea waves separating the exiles of Cyprus from Palestine, their desired country.
The side plates are decorated with the characteristic barbed wire, reading "Cyprus" (Hebrew) and the Hebrew year "5709" (1948/1949).
19.5X13.5X6 cm. Good condition. Minor blemishes and stains to plates.

An advertising booklet issued by the "Ahawah" Children's and Youth's Home in Haifa. Tel-Aviv: Melnik-Propaganda, [ca. mid-late 1930s]. German and some Hebrew.
The booklet contains a long informational text accompanied by ten pictures: the playroom, a visit to the cowshed, plowing the field, the dining room, the kitchen, and more. Some of the pictures were taken by Tim Gidal and Lou Landuaer.
The "Ahawah" institution was founded in Berlin after the end of World War I as a home for child refugees from Eastern Europe, and later was turned into an orphanage for German-Jewish children. In 1922, nurse Beate Berger was appointed director of the institution; she changed its name to "Ahawah" and after the Nazis' rise to power, decided to move it to Palestine. A new building was built on the outskirts of Haifa with the assistance of the JNF and visas were obtained for the children of the institution with the assistance of Henrietta Szold. During the 1960s, the orphanage started working with the Youth Aliyah and today it operates under the name of "The Ahawah Children's and Youth's Village".
[4] leaves, approx. 18.5 cm. Good condition. Horizontal fold line. Stains and minor blemishes.
The booklet is not in NLI. One copy only in OCLC.

1. "General review of a 'journey' via Persian Azerbaijan and Anatolia, 13.6.1951-1.7.1951", a typewritten report with several handwritten additions, documenting a 3000-kilometer journey by land and a sea voyage of the same distance from Teheran to Haifa via Turkey, on which the writer had embarked (presumably, to examine the possibility of bringing Jews to Israel not by plane). Includes a detailed documentation of the road networks, the political conditions, Jewish institutions, and the army and history of Persia and Turkey.
12, [2] pp. 28.5 cm. Good-Fair condition. Filing holes, creases and small tears along edges. Stains and open tears to the first leaf (not affecting the text). A small piece is cut from the upper part of the first leaf (presumably a name of a place or the writer's name).
