About 80 notices, writings, accounts, letters and other paper items, most of them written by hand, documenting the operations of "Agudath HaDor HaTzair" [The Association of the Young Generation] in Safed. Safed, early 1920s to early 1930s (a number of items are from later years). "Agudath HaDor HaTzair" was active in the early decades of the twentieth century, with the aim to encourage spiritual and cultural development among Jewish youth in Safed. Among other activities, the members organized lectures, discussions, parties and even a theater group – "Jewish Theater Enthusiasts" which drew the attention of the press and received positive reviews. The collection includes: * About 25 items related to the theater and to "Jewish Theater Enthusiasts in Safed"; draft of a letter to "Governor of Safed District" regarding the establishment of a theater and cinema hall in the city; nine detailed lists of incomes and expenses for plays performed by the group; an interesting four-page letter, pleading the group members to avoid performances for fear of political identification and sabotaging the group aims (Signed by Avraham Bergman and dated 1923); and more. * About 20 "Orders", handwritten and signed by treasurer and secretary of the association, ordering the transfer of funds, salaries and different payments from the association treasury. Dated 1923. * Letters, written by hand on official stationery of "Committee of Safed Jews", asking the association members not to wander around in Muslim cemeteries. Dated Nisan 23, 1922. * Draft of a letter from the committee secretary to the "City's Committee" announcing that the "Young Generation Association undertook the arrangement of a meeting with our Commissioner Sir Herbert Samuel, riding on horses". * Lists of members, various forms, minutes of the association meetings, booklet with regulations of the association and more items. Numerous items are written on forms and official stationery and some are stamped with the association's ink-stamps. Size and condition vary. Good-fair overall condition.
