The Back of My Book
Star of David book
Yesterday I brought home the first chapter of my Hebrew book titled Star of David Album. It was only a pilot to see how the whole book will look like. This chapter, Pictorial History, contains 44 pages with 66 photos starting from 2700 B.C.E until 1948. The whole book will have more than 300 pages and more than 500 photos. Soon I'll publish the whole book, but only on a CD, since the resolution of most of the photos is too law for book printing.

The Names Stamp
Postage Stamp, Yellow Badge
This postage stamp with Yellow Badge was designed by Meir Eshel.
On the stamp appear names of force laborers from a factory in Poland – most of them were shot and the rest were transported to a Death Camp. The rail roads that were used for transporting Jews to Death Camps become the blue stripes of the Israeli flag and the yellow badge becomes a blue Star of David on the Israeli flag. Issued in 2003.

The Heart Says Thanks Sticker
david-shield-sticker-love logoPhoto was taken by Israeli designer Hayim Shtayer
Copyright: Hayim Shtayer 2007
The Hebrew on the stickers reads: I love Israel (on top) and The Heart Says Thanks (on the bottom). The last sticker was made in 2002 to support the Israeli security forces like: Idf, police, Red Magen David...It is hard to see on this photo but each Star of David is made from six hearts.
