Collection of Photographs by Photographer Rudi Weissenstein – Youth Aliyah – Studies, Agricultural Training and Vocational Training
Ten photographs documenting Youth Aliyah in Palestine, by photographer Rudi Weissenstein [Tel-Aviv, Nahalal, Givat Brenner, Ayanot and elsewhere, ca. 1940s].
Among the photographs: boys and girls dancing "Hora" on a platform in the Tel-Aviv port after disembarking the ship that brought them to Palestine; classroom in a school in Nahalal; joint studies in Kibbutz Givat Brenner; training youth for different occupations: carpentry, welding, milking, picking oranges, and more.
The photographs are stamped on the back with photographer's stamp (nine in English and one in Hebrew); some are titled in handwriting (English) on the back.
Size and condition vary. Average size: approx. 23X18 cm. Good-fair overall condition. Blemishes, creases and stains (mostly to back). Tears at margins, some restored. Three photographs are lacking a corner.
Provenance: Rimon Family Collection.
