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...
