Opening: $300
Sold for: $575
Including buyer's premium
Four collapsible boxes for collecting donations for the Tel Hai fund [Palestine, France and Russia(?), 1930s].
Two boxes were printed in France; one of them is stamped "Printed in France, Tel Hai Fund, Toronto, Canada"; one box was presumably printed in Russia. The name of the fund is printed on it in Hebrew and Russian. A map of Palestine appears on the back, with the portrait of Jabotinsky in the center; the fourth box bears Hebrew text only and is decorated with a menorah instead of the fund's emblem.
The Tel Hai fund was founded in London in 1929, to raise and allocate funds for the Zionist Revisionist movement.
9.5X8 cm on average. Overall good condition. Stains. Minor blemishes.
Provenance: The Rimon Family Collection.
