Publicity poster for the Israeli Beer A.A. Poster features a bottle of beer and two glasses of beer, with a reflection of a couple dining around a table in one of the glasses. The slogan "Bira Alef Alef, Alef Alef LeTiv UleTaam" (A.A. Beer, the best for quality and taste) appears on the upper part. The text: "Bira meshubachat - Lekol HaMishpacha" (High quality beer - for the whole family) appears on the bottom of the poster.
A.A. Beer was brewed by "Kabir Ta'asiyot Bira" in Bat Yam, who also produced Nesher Beer. The brewery probably merged with Mivshelet Shechar Leumit of Netanya, producers of Abir Beer.
The slogan on the poster suggests the beer was named A.A. after the slang term for premium quality, but it also might stand for Abir Extra (in Hebrew), one of the Abir Beer's high quality variants.
Signed in print by the designer at top left corner: S. Lieberman.
No date, early 1960s. ?98x68 cm. Very good condition.

Collection of items related to Tat Rama Gallery, founded by the Dotan brothers, Danny and Uri, on Shenkin Street in Tel Aviv in 1984. The collection includes all three issues of the art periodical Tat Rama, newspaper clippings, two postcards and a photo, and 16 original drawings by Menashe Kadishman, drawn in the gallery. One of the sketches appears on the cover of issue no. 1 of the periodical from September 1984. Three of the drawings are 100x70 cm, while the others are smaller - from potcard size to 50x35 cm. Many of them are various versions of the illustration which appeared on the cover of the magazine, and beside them are portraits of Danny and Uri Dotan, and a drawing which is reminiscent of the statue "The Binding of Isaac" places at the entrance to the Tel Aviv Museum, as topic with which Kadishman was preoccupied with in his work. Twelve of the drawings are signed by Kadishman.
The collection also includes an advertising poster for a Purim Parade which the Dotan brothers produced on Sheinkin Street in 1984. The poster has drawings of human figures by Uri Dotan. 70X49 cm.
Other artists whose works are featured in the periodical: Yona Wollach, Honi HaMeagel, Alex Levac, Yoram Kupermintz, Menashe Kadishman, Yehoshua Neustein, Tzachi Ostrovsky, Michael Druks, Pinhas Cohen Gan, Moshe Gershuni, Meir Agasi, Harold Rubin, Eitan Pimentel (sho painted the cover of Ehud Banai's debut album) and others.
The Dotan brothers and the Tat Rama Gallery are considered the founders of Shenkin Street as an artistic, young and innovative street. When they arrived there at the early eighties, it was a dull, old fashioned street, with an elderly population, mostly Haredis and craftsmen. The Dotan brothers envisioned an alternative community of artists, creating alternative culture. They opened "Sheink-In" art gallery and later "Tat-Rama", and for a while their vision became a reality, which affected deeply Tel Aviv and Israeli culture.
Various sizes and conditions. General condition - good.
