Eight rare invitations, 1930’s, Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, Haifa, Tiberias. Including an invitation to a wedding at Mishmar Hayarden, which fell in the War of Independence, and the groom and his parents were taken into captivity
A. Ornate invitation to a wedding on December 2, 1932, in the Old City of Jerusalem (the bride’s parents do not appear on it; instead, the uncle and aunt of the bride are mentioned).
B. Invitation to a wedding on Chabad Street in Jerusalem’s Old City.
C. Invitation to the wedding of Yitzchak Blashnishkov (son of Yehoshua and Rachel) in Mishmar Hayarden, June 14, 1932.
Later, the groom and his parents were taken into captivity by Syria during the War of Independence. Mishmar Hayarden was destroyed during the war, and the mother of the groom didn’t want to leave her husband and son who were taken captive (at the beginning of February 1949, the Blashnishkov couple were released as a gesture of goodwill; their son was apparently only released in July of that same year).
E. Invitation to the opening meeting of the founding convention of the National Workers’ Union of Israel, Jerusalem 1934.
F. Entrance ticket to the celebration on the occasion of 800 years since the passing of the Rambam in Tiberias, Pesach 1935, sponsored by the Vaad HaLeumi.
