Two JNF "Blue Boxes", produced by S.P.A. Lito Latta, Savona, Italy, [mid 1940s].
Tin, printing.
Particularly large boxes with a hook on their back for hanging in public institutes. Printed on the front of the box is a map of Eretz Israel; the city of Aqaba appears in the south. One box is designed slightly different from the other (the difference is mainly in the typography, the size of the map and its location on the box).
Height: 25 cm, width: 20 cm, length: 11 cm. One is good to very good condition, the other is in fair-good condition (peeled paint, rust. Restored at the bottom).
