Four share warrant certificates issued by The Marine Trust Ltd. company. Tel-Aviv: "Eretz Israel", [1936]. Hebrew and English.
In April 1936, when the Arab Revolt broke out, the Jaffa Port went on strike and there was an increasing need for establishing a new port. The Marine Trust company was founded to finance the construction of a new port – the Port of Tel-Aviv. Half of the shares were offered to the public, and the public bought shares with a sense of participation in the Zionist enterprise.
