Informative poster on the subject of a uniform tax in Palestine, on behalf of the Histadrut (the Workers' Organization). No printer or year noted, [Palestine, 1937]. Signed in Hebrew: "Shnoyer" [David Shne'or?], "Dr. Y. Shapira Advertising". Hebrew.
Fine poster, printed in black and blue. At the top is an illustration showing the card of a Histadrut member, with blue stamps indicating the uniform tax has been paid for the first months of 1937. In the background are cement buildings with the inscriptions, "Unemployment Fund", "Histadrut Tax", "Kupat Holim", "Disability Fund".
Beneath the illustration is an explanation regarding the uniform tax and a call to Histadrut members to bring their old cards to the tax bureau and have them replaced with new ones.
The uniform tax was introduced in 1937, combining two separate taxes previously levied by the Histadrut HaKlalit - the organizational tax and the payment for Kupat Holim (Health Maintenance Organization) membership.
96X63 cm. Good condition. Folding marks and some stains. Some repaired tears to margins. The entire poster is mounted on thin acid-free paper.
