'THE TRADE OF THE HOUSE OF JUDAS' - Antisemitic proclamation. [England], 1930s
THE TRADE OF THE HOUSE OF JUDAS - 'The Trade of Beit Yehuda' - an antisemitic proclamation mocking the wrong ways the Jews are engaged in them for a living [England], 1930s.
In the center of the proclamation is a stereotypical figure of a Jew inside a Star of David. On the Star of David were written the Obscene ways of occupation of the Jew: 'international spy', 'fake auctioneer', 'bankruptcy expert', 'shyster lawyer', 'conveyer of stolen goods', and more. Under the Star of David was written the addition: "And any trade that the law forbids."
Under the Star of David were written the warning: "JUDAS BEWARE - SHED YOUR EVIL TRAITS OR THERE WILL BE A REVERSED PASSOVER FOR YOU" (referring to the Exodus where the Jews defeated the Egyptians, here the proclamation warns that the opposite may happen to the Jews themselves).
22x18 cm. fold mark. Good condition.
