Trilingual Poster - The Occupation of Jerusalem by Allenby, 1917 - Arabic in Hebrew Letters
"Almanshurat Alcharbia Albritania Walalmania Makarna Bin Antantin Manha" - poster on the occupation of Jerusalem by the British. [ca. 1917]. English, French and Judeo-Arabic (Arabic written in Hebrew script).
The poster is printed with the official declaration of Edmund Allenby of a military regime after the occupation of Jerusalem, in English, alongside a proclamation published by the Germans after occupying the city of Holnon, France in 1915. Beneath the two proclamations is a paragraph clarifying and emphasizing the differences between them, particularly the positive attitude of the British occupiers compared to that of the Germans with respect to the native residents of Holnon. At the bottom of the poster is a translation of the two proclamations to Judeo-Arabic.
48.5X75 cm. Fair-good condition. Folding marks, creases and tears to poser margins. Stains.
