Collection of Posters for the Visit of the Rebbe Rayatz of Lubavitch in Eretz Israel – 1929

Opening: $180
Sold for: $750
Including buyer's premium

Five posters printed for the visit of Rebbe Yosef Yitzchak Schneerson, the Rebbe Rayatz of Lubavitch, in Eretz Israel in Av, 1929.

The posters announce the time of arrival of the Rebbe Rayatz, give information on greetings and farewells to be held in his honor, as well as additional information on his visit.

The posters are signed "Kollel Chabad administration", "Torat Emet general yeshiva administration", "Chief Rabbinate of Eretz Israel" and "Agudat Yisrael Center in Eretz Israel".

One of the posters – "Denial and Vigorous Protest", was printed on the authority of the Agudat Yisrael Center (with its official stamp), in response to a "false letter" distributed just before the Rayatz's visit in Jerusalem. In this "false letter", it was stated that the Rebbe Rayatz would meet with R. Kook ("that man") during his visit, but only in order to support Russian Jewry, to which end he was meeting with "many wicked people". The present poster denies and totally disclaims the message.


5 posters. Varying size and condition. Overall good condition.
