Rare handwritten Zionist certificate, Simferopol (Crimea) 1920
A rare 'certificate' written by a handsome 'writer' on behalf of the Temporary Center of the Zionist Organization in Tavrida - Simferopol - [Crimea] indicating that Mr. David Ben-Arie Belzerkovsky was used for one year 1919-1920 in the temporary center as director of the Federation's Immigration Office Zionist in Tavrida - Simferopol. The certificate is intended to strengthen Beltzerkowski's position vis-à-vis the Zionist institutions and the Land of Israel and vis-à-vis all Zionist activists to come by his side when he needs their help. The 'certificate' is signature by the chairman, and the secretary, and an official ink stamp of the 'district committee for the Zionist Organization in Tavrida. 7 Tammuz, 1920'.
Tiberias is a region in southern Ukraine that includes the Crimean peninsula. The province is named after the Taurus, the Greek settlers in the Crimea. Zionist documents from Simferopol in the Crimea are extremely rare, and in general the historical information about Zionist activity there is extremely poor. See, for example, the Zionist Archive, record number F30 \ 1001.
Size: 30x22 cm. Folding marks. Few stains. Good condition.
