Two handmade posters - paper gluing, and handwriting, to encourage planting in Eretz Israel. Israel, c. 1950s.

"Our baskets on our shoulders, with our heads adorned we came from the corners of the land and brought first fruits" - a boy and a girl with a basket of Bikkurim on their heads, and in the background a rural landscape - colorful lithographic print affixed to cardboard and in the center in handwriting: "Our baskets on our shoulders ..." 68x51 cm. Wrinkles and stains. Good condition.

An illustration of an Israeli boy and girl planting a seedling - a painted print glued on Paperboard, and the handwritten verse: "Vechi Tavou el HaAretz..." 63x50 cm. Tears on the edges, stains, good condition.

It is possible that the two posters served as an outline for the posters that were printed later.
