Lilien, Boats
Star of David hovers over a page from Ephrayim Moshe Lilien's book Lieder Des Ghetto [Songs of the Ghetto]. The book is from 1902 and it looks old, as you can see in the photo...At the bottom of the page we see candles designed in the shape of boats.
The book was accompanied by poems by East European Jew named Morris Rosenfeld, who had socialist ideals similar to those of Lilien.
Gideon From a stamps-collector's-Forum called Collect brought me the book and I thank him for that.
