Beschreibung:

1. Palestine (Eretz Israel) Telephone directory for Jerusalem and the South, April 1944. 2. Palestine (Eretz Israel) Telephone directory for Tel-Aviv-Jaffa and the West, January 1944. 3. Palestine (Eretz Israel) Telephone directory for Haifa and the North, January 1944. [Jerusalem]: Palestine Post, Telegraph & Telephone. The third countrywide telephone directory published in Eretz Israel and the first published in separate volumes for the different cities (for the previous directories a single volume sufficed). The seal of the British Mandate High Commissioner appears on the first page of the Jerusalem directory, with the telephone numbers of the private secretary and staff of “His Highness the High Commissioner.” The pages of the directories display anecdotal advice for using the telephone: “Wrong number! Say ‘I am sorry’”, etc. 44 pp.; 68 pp.; 44 pp., 23 cm. Condition varies, Tel-Aviv-Jaffa directory is worn and the binding somewhat torn. The two other volumes in Very Good condition.
