A pamphlet containing ten woodcuts on the subject of the "Halutz" described in pencil by Paul Conrad Henich. "Which I envisioned and felt in my heart the figures of the Unknown Halutz, I etch on these boards." Copy numbered 162 out of 500 copies printed from the original boards.

The tables describe the various stages of the "Halutz" who comes to Israel to becoming an employee pioneer: farewell, on the ship, to our land, craft, from the town, to the village, partner, grove, guard, do not eulogize me.
On the last page, the caption reads: "Special prints published by 'hador', as they are used in graphics cycles, have not been done, because they contradict the basic idea of this work."

[14] leaves, 30.5 cm. Stains on cover, good condition.
