Six satiric leaves from the series "Open Letters" (Offerer Brief) by Isaac Moses Hersch. Berlin: S. Löwenherz, 1948. German.
The leaves were published as part of a series of wall-notices during the 1848 revolution, and were worded as open letters addressed to public figures and politicians. The name Yitzchak Moshe Hersch is pseudonym of the publisher Levine Kalman Weil and the historian Shmuel Loevenhertz. The leaves are written in German and include citations in faulty Yiddish in German letters. Enclosed: an additional photocopied leaf from the series.
Approx. 49X33.5 cm. Condition varies. Good overall condition. Stains and creases. Tears and defects to margins (mostly slight). Two leaves in fair condition, with open tears at margins (not affecting text).
