"Mizrah", printed on silk fabric. Printed by the Israel Dov Frumkin Printing Press, Jerusalem, [ca. late 1880s].
Printed on behalf of the Jerusalem Old Folks' Home - "The profit from the sale of this cloth will be dedicated to the Old Folks' Home in the Holy City of Jerusalem, may it be rebuilt and restored". At the bottom is a prayer on the subject of donations to the Old Folks' Home (in Yiddish-Teitsch) and beneath it another dedicational inscription, in German. Includes blessings for the Sabbath and holidays. At the center is the coat-of-arms of the Monetfiore family, with the inscription "Mizrah" showing animals holding the Ten Commandments. Surrounding it are illustrations of trees ("Atzei Chaim"), Hanukkah lamps with the cruse of oil, the Machpelah Cave, the tomb of Rabbi Meir Ba'al HaNess, Rachel's Tomb, "Image of the Jerusalem Old Folks' Home", the Davidic Kings' Tomb, the Western Wall, and a view of the city of Safed.
