Background

Scope and content:

Two issues of the weekly newsletter of the German and Austrian Immigrant's Association based in Tel Aviv. Issue No. 7 is titled Mitteilungsblatt der Hitachduth Olej Germania and the issue dated "Mai II" is titled Mitteilungsblatt der Hitachduth Olej Germania we Olej Austria. Both issues were published in 1939 and include both German and Hebrew text. Mitteilungsblatt der Hitachduth Olej Germania we Olej Austria was a Zionist publication printed in Tel Aviv and mailed to Germany and Austria with updates on the Zionist Congress and information on how to move to Mandatory Palestine (the geopolitical predecessor to Israel). Issue No. 7 includes an article with the bolded headline: "Beschleunigt den Auszug!" [Accelerate Your Move-Out!]. That article includes updates on anti-Jewish laws in Germany. Both issues contain numerous advertisements, some with illustrations, targeted to Jewish emigrés, including advertisements for travel insurance, moving companies, and other services. The "Hitachduth" was an immigration organization founded in 1920 that worked toward a Socialist Jewish commonwealth in Palestine. Zionist leader Georg Landauer (1895–1954) ran the publication.
