A Metal Israeli Kotel Charity Container, 1910
About the Item
A Rare Metal Israeli Kotel charity container for Rabbi Meir Baal Haness from 1910 tied to Jewish religious and charitable traditions.
Rabbi Meir Baal Haness, also known as Rabbi Meir the Miracle Worker, was a prominent Jewish sage and scholar who lived during the 2nd century CE. He is revered in Jewish tradition for his teachings and reputed miracles performed in times of need.
Charity containers dedicated to Rabbi Meir Baal Haness were used to collect donations for charitable purposes, often supporting the poor, needy, or educational initiatives within Jewish communities. Donations were believed to invoke the rabbi's blessings and merit. The Kotel (Western Wall) in Jerusalem is one of the holiest sites in Judaism, and charity containers placed there symbolize the connection between religious devotion and acts of charity.
The charity container is made of metal and features a secure lid with the original metal lock (Key not Included) and a slot for inserting donations. An inscription in Hebrew of Rabbi Meir Baal Haness' name and a depiction of the Kotel (Western Wall) in Jerusalem is painted on the front.
Charity containers associated with Rabbi Meir Baal Haness from 1910 are valued as historical artifacts that reflect Jewish religious devotion and charitable practices during a pivotal period in the history of Jewish settlement in Palestine. They embody the continuity of Jewish religious customs and traditions over centuries.

An Early Charity Container from an Agudath Israel Convention
Located in New York, NY
This unique vintage pushka (charity box) is a rare historical piece from an Agudath Israel convention held in early 20th-century Europe, possibly near Switzerland. The design and inscriptions suggest that it was distributed to attendees as a keepsake and functional charity collection box.
The pushka is made of tin, crafted by the European company Gebr. Hoffman, which began producing tins in 1904 in Thun, Switzerland. The two halves of the box fit together seamlessly, ensuring a secure closure. One side features an embossed design resembling an early 20th-century Swiss coin, with a large "1" encircled by a laurel wreath. Below the number, a narrow slit allows for the insertion of coins, making it a practical donation container.
The reverse side of the tin bears...
