Description
   Beautifully executed certificate in multiple colors for distribution to generous donors by Khal Hasidim in Jerusalem. The text is within architectural frames with scenes of Erez Israel within the frame. The broadside was executed by the famous Monson Press, who introduced lithography to the country in 1867 with German Presses. The languages utilized suggest that this broadside was printed for the American donor. The certificate is dated [5]68_ making it current for the period 1920-29.
