A book with 15 cardboard cards with slits for putting small slips of paper with numbers. Under every slit there is a caption – Tzedaka, Bought, and ח"ק in Hebrew, and Torah Study, Visiting the Sick, Yeshiva, Jerusalem, and many others in Hungarian. The writing on all the cards is identical, but some of the cards are empty. Only the first four cards have slips of paper inside.
Enclosed is a cardboard card, which says "First" on one side, and "Cohen" on the other side.
Since the gabba'im are unable to write the pledges made by the congregants on Shabbat, many original alternatives to this have been found throughout history. This notebook is one example of such an alternative. [Regarding additional solutions, see Kedem catalogue, sale 2, items 212-213].
[15] cardboard cards, 24 cm. Cloth and wood cover, tied with three strings. Fair condition. Stains and signs of wear and use on the cards and cover.
