Ship Called You Do Not Frighten Us
A piece of history (with a Magen David):
Happy New Year postcard from 1948; Photo had been taken in a Hashomer Hatzair Kibbutz in Italy a short while before the grandparents of Liat-Barkan (Preker) [Haim Preker Shpiro and Sonia Sara Preker (Wollmark)], who appear in the mirror frame on the right side of the photo) mounted the ship called “You Do Not Frighten Us” which was carrying illegal immigrants to Palestine.

Hayim Shtayer, who is a main contributor to this project, has sent me this photo.
