Large trilingual poster showing a diagram containing data on Jewish industrial establishments in Warsaw, and the numerical proportion of Jews in the various industries. Yiddish, Polish, and English. Warsaw 1921.

Jewish industrial establishments in Warsaw 1921. At the base of the diagram are the various industries in which Jews were employed in Warsaw this year: graphics, textiles, rubber industry, paper production, wood cutting, chemicals, and more. When in each industry, data are obtained in three categories: Jews employed in one motor power machinery, on hand power machinery - manual machine workers without motor, and without machinery - employed in other areas not on machines at all.

A similar (but not identical) poster from the Nachum Sokolov Collection published by Die Welt in 1922 about the share of Jews in industry in Poland in general by Elazar Heller appears in the collection of the Zionist Archives.

Size: 65x50 cm. Very good condition.
