Double-sided poster with a map of the U.N. Committee partition. Published by the "Bureau of Current Affairs", "Fosh & Cross" printing press, London, 1947. English.
Pamphlet-poster no. 37 from the series "Map Review": a map of Palestine according to the Partition Plan, with a detailed review of the soil quality, population centers and the summarized conclusions of the "U.N. Special Committee on Palestine". On the other side of the poster are three items on current events.
The series "Map Review" was printed by the British Army shortly after World War II, and supplied military officials with pamphlets that featured a map on one side and a current affairs review on the other side. Their printing was expensive (especially in light of the lack of resources at the end of the war), to the point of causing disputes in the government, until finally being stopped. Poster no. 37 concerned the U.N.'s Partition Plan.
76.5X101 cm. Fair-good condition. Folding marks, creases and tears (some reinforced with adhesive tape). On the reverse is a drawing of Palestine according to the Partition Plan, in blue pencil.

"Lo Kach! Rak Kach!" [Not so! Only so!], illustrated poster of the "Aliya Hadasha" (New Aliya) party. "Parsa" press, Tel Aviv, [1940s]. Signed in print: Ross. Hebrew.
The illustration shows a youth throwing a hand grenade at burning buildings, alongside the inscription "Lo Kach!" ("Not so!"); underneath, a farmer appears against the background of a settlement in Palestine, with the inscription "Rak kach!" ("Only so!") - an ironic reference to the slogan of the Irgun, expressing the party's more moderate approach.
The "Aliya Hadasha" party was a liberal Zionist party founded in 1942 by immigrants from Germany and Austria, seeking to promote the interests of Central European immigrants. In the elections to the Assembly of Representatives in 1944 the party won 18 seats. In 1948 it merged with the "HaOved HaTzioni" movement and the General Zionists Faction A to create the Progressive Party.
Approx. 34.5X49 cm. Good-fair condition. Folding marks and some creases. Foxing. Some tears to margins. Small paper piece glued to poster's top part to cover a slight defect.
