Nahum Sokolov - The legend of Belgium and its dead king - a complete essay in his handwriting
The legend of Belgium and its dead king, a complete essay in the handwriting and full signature of the president of the Zionist Organization Nahum Sokolov [1859-1936].
A ten-page story written in the handwriting of Nahum Sokolov about King Albert I of Belgium who was the third king of Belgium from December 23, 1909, after the death of Leopold II. The story deals with the interesting composition of the Belgian population and the efficient manner in which the Belgian workers perform their work, as well as the effects related to the migration of the Belgians to France, and the Second World War when Belgium fought Germany, and the wise manner in which Belgium led the economy during the war. Some argue that Sokolov wrote the essay to outline a path for the Zionist leadership, that even during a crisis in front of powerful countries it is possible to keep calm, and move forward to achieve the goals with wisdom and determination, and also because of his personal sympathy for King Albert.
King Albert was very sympathetic to the Zionist issue, and even had connections with the top Zionist leaders. On April 13, 1933, about a year before his death, the king visited Tel Aviv - he was the first king to be hosted in the Land of Israel. During his visit, he met with Tel Aviv Mayor Meir Dizengoff and other dignitaries, in their ears he expressed his support for the Zionist idea and even promised to return, but a year later he was killed in a fall in a mountain climbing accident, and Dizengoff, grief stricken, led the commemoration movement to erect a square named after him in Tel Aviv "Albert Square".
10 written pages. 21x20 cm. Very good condition.
