Pesach Haggada, Bengazi (Libya), 1943.
This illustrated, non-traditional Haggada was produced from a stencil. Printed on the backs of bluish telegram paper of the Italian governor general in Libya.
One passage from the Haggada: “On this night we sanctify the festival of freedom…our hearts are in turmoil because the world has become our gallows. Let not our blood be covered! This year, we heard from the European exile the cry of our brothers being murdered, with no one to save them… News reached us of what happened in the valley of killing… This year, the year of the greatest fear our people has ever known since its founding.”
27 pages. Front cover missing. 21.5 X 15 cm. Fine condition. A few stains.
