An early and rare 'New Year' postcard- Germany, 1881
"LeShana Tova Tikatev" - An early and rare jewish 'Happy New Year' postcard, with greetings for the new year in Hebrew and German. A pair of angels waving a flying scroll on which is written "לשנה טובה תכתב" - "For a good year, write" in golden letters. Shofar of Rosh Hashanah and scales. Greetings also in German: "A new abundance of life and happiness...". On the back of the postcard greetings "to Rabbi HaGaon Mor. Rabbi Yaakov Mordechai NI". Parshat Nitsavim, September 16, 1881. The German mail. Extremely rare. One of the first Jewish 'Shana Tova' postcards ever printed.
In Haim Grossman's book 'New Year' postcards from the author's collection, 2019, can be find examples of jewish 'New Year' postcards with the angel motif that were issued in Germany as appears in the postcard before us. The earliest postcard that appears in his book is from 1897. Before us postcard that preceded it by almost 20 years!
Also, this postcard does not appear in "Past Perfect - The Jewish Experience in Early 20th Century Postcards" New York 1997.
9x14 cm. Uמdivided back. Tears in the left margin. Other than that, good condition.
