This Auction represents the active and expanded continuation of a trend influenced by the collectors we have adopted, in order to expand our services to collectors, libraries and lovers of the Jewish past in all its shades.
In sales of collections, great emphasis has been placed on promoting such collections for the benefit of institutions, archives and also individual collectors.
We wish to emphasize that, since many of these lots contain many items including thick albums and books, as well as metal, olivewood, and heavy objects, purchasers must take into account shipping costs when considering bids and final prices.

Dozens of souvenirs from Rachel’s Tomb
“v’Shavu Banim LiGevulam” - The site, which has been a huge source of longing for generations, was immortalized in Jewish homes in the Diaspora and merited a place of honor in bindings of prayer books, home decorations and countless souvenirs, whose purpose was to inspire motherly pity for children.
Before us is a wonderful collection of olive wood items, the wood that regularly accompanied pictures and illustrations of Rachel Imenu’s tombstone; photos and postcards from various times, copper reliefs, antique engraving, metal plates, photo albums in leather bindings with copper plaques on which the shape of Rachel Imenu’s grave is engraved. Handicrafts, siddurim with bindings of the tomb and more.
