All the issues of the journal "HaGalgal" (The Wheel) [Editor: Dov Kimchi], in five volumes. Published by the Governmental Information Ministry in Jerusalem, on behalf of the British Ministry of Information. 1943-1948.
Volume A: 26 issues; Volume B: 42 issues; Volume C: 50 issues; Volume D: 50 issues; Volume E: 35 issues + three issues of "HaMa'azin" (April 22, 1948; May 6, 1948 and May 13 1948, the day before the Israeli Declaration of Independence).
"HaGalgal", the journal of the radio station "Kol Yerushalayim" (Jerusalem Calling), established by the British Mandatory Authority, was published in order "to bring to its readers an abundance of opinions on the war… on cultural, economic and social problems… and on scientific achievements in democratic countries". The journal also contained sections dedicated to literature, culture, a section for women about cosmetics, fashion and cooking, a technical section for solving problems in radio receivers, broadcasts schedule and more. Many of the articles and columns were translated from foreign press.
Although the journal was published regularly during the battle over Jerusalem (which started after the declaration of the UN on November 29, 1947), as the voice of the British Mandate, it rarely mentioned the difficult situation in Jerusalem and Palestine, the exception being single and neutral references. The last issue was published on May 25, 1948, then it was transferred to local ownership and was published as "HaMa'azin – The Journal of the Hebrew Radio". The three issues of "HaMa'azin" in this lot all deal with the situation in Israel, in stark contrast to the total disregard which was the policy of the journal until then.
203 issues of "HaGalgal" + 3 issues of "HaMa'azin", in five volumes, 30cm. Condition varies.

"For the Arrival of U.Z. Greenberg", a printed broadside. No printer, date, or place. [Palestine, ca. 1934].
The broadside presents passages from letters by Uri Zvi Greenberg to the couple Miriam and Yehoshua Heschel Yeivin, containing sharp criticizm of Chaim Arlosoroff, Menachem Ussishkin and others: "Yeivin, you must blow up the matter! Write a profound headline 'What and on whose behalf did Arlosoroff speak with Abbas Helmy'. Write: 'You Jews are being deceived and will have to face the established facts'. Ussishkin too due to his objection to a separate municipality is dangerous… Ussishkin is stupid and is dangerous in his sympathetic stupidity […] and you think that only one death sentence will be enough for the Sanballats? They deserve being torn to pieces and fed to the mice" (The title "Sanballat" was often used by U.Z. Greenberg to describe his political enemies).
At the beginning of the broadside it is noted that the letters were read to Judge Bodilly during the trial of Arlosoroff's murder.
Yehoshua Heschel Yeivin, to whom the letters cited by the broadside were sent, was one of the spiritual leaders of the Revisionist Movement and the partner of Uri Zvi Greenberg in establishing "Brit HaBiryonim" (The Strongmen Alliance). The broadside before us was printed at a time when the Jewish public of Palestine was still torn regarding the question of whether Arlosoroff's murder was a political one that was committed under the influence of the incitement of "Brit HaBiryonim"; and attempted, presumably, to prove the guilt of "Brit HaBiryonim".
[1] leaf, 33x22cm. Good-fair condition. Fold lines and creases. Tears to edges, some of them open (affecting text), some of them reinforced by acid-free tape. Tiny holes.
