An album with ten photographs and a handmade embroidered cover – a souvenir from a Youth Aliyah group at Stock's Farm. Passover 1943.
Stock's Farm was established by the Italian Stock family of industrialists in 1925. During the 1930s and 1940s, the farm was used for training hundreds of young people within the framework of the Youth Aliyah, and after the War of Independence it was "sold" for a symbolic price to the State of Israel. It had an orchard, fields and chicken coops. Today, the farm stands empty and neglected and its buildings are falling apart.
This album contains ten photographs (one photograph on each leaf; captioned by hand), documenting the lives of the boys and girls on the farm: planting potatoes, plowing, pruning trees, the chicken coop, the farmhouse, and more.
The album has a cloth cover with an embroidery – an illustration of the farmhouse and two trees. A handwritten Hebrew dedication on the inside front cover reads: "To Joseph! For Passover, from your friends on the farm. Passover 1943".
Size of photographs varies. Album: approx. 11X15 cm. Good condition. Minor blemishes. Stains on the binding.
