18 booklets of reports of the Committee for the Construction of The Great Synagogue in Tel Aviv and afterwards on behalf of the Committee of the synagogue HaGadol in Tel Aviv, Tel Aviv, 1921-1944.
The attempts to build a central synagogue for "the Yaffo Congregation in Tel Aviv" began in 1914, but the laying of the cornerstone for The Great Synagogue (at the corner of 110 Allenby Street and Achad Ha'Am) planned by the architect Yehuda Magidowitz took place in 1924. The construction was delayed from lack of funds (until receiving Baron Rothschild's contribution), and the building was dedicated only in 1928.
This collection of booklets has comprehensive information about the first steps for the construction of The Great Synagogue, including name of committee members, early architectural sketches, detailed lists of expenditures, names of members, those who contributed objects, books and those who rented seats (until the mid 1940 s). Apparently, one of the synagogue's members collected the booklets and added handwritten notes and corrections, especially regarding financial data, but also about general topics. Volume 22.5 cm. restored, new cover. Varied condition of booklets, fair-very good.

Silver Trophy (with English silver marks) with engraving. Tel-Aviv, 1928.
"The 'Mond' Trophy, presented by Lord Melchett. The winner: 1928, HaPo'el Tel-Aviv.
In 1928, Lord Melchett (Sir Alfred Mond) headed the first attempt at forming a top team of Jewish players to represent Eretz Yisrael in other countries. On his tour to Palestine in 1928, he announced that he was willing to allot 2,000 pounds for a Hebrew team, which would tour England and hold soccer tournaments with British teams.
On June 14, 1928, the four top teams in Israel at that time took part in a tournament: Maccabi Tel Aviv, HaPo'el Tel Aviv, HaPo'el Haifa, and Maccabi Hashmonai Jerusalem, intending that the winning team would fly to England. HaPo'el Tel Aviv won this trophy.
Various confrontations arose about technical details related to the team's preparation (such as, the waving of the Hebrew flag, and the manner of determining the team). Moreover, the media criticized the level of soccer in Eretz Yisrael and people were apprehensive about adverse results that were liable to shame Jewish sports. Therefore, it was decided to postpone the trip to England for a year and to apply to Lord Mond to send a coach from England to train the top team. A coach never arrived and this trophy is almost the only evidence of this story. Height: 25.5 cm. Maximal width: 21.5 cm. Good condition. To the best of our knowledge – this is the first Eretz Yisrael soccer trophy.
