Yizkor prayer for the souls of our holy people - A pocket notebook with "Yizkor" prayers in memory of one's mother, in memory of one's father, in memory of the holy souls of our people and the E-l Maleh Rachamim prayer. Additionally, a donor page for each recipient of the booklet with various contribution rates, published by the JNF's Religious Department in Bratislava, in the midst of World War Two. Hebrew and Czech column by column.

Alongside the Yizkor prayers is a text in Czech: "When you tremble remembering your dearest, think of the Holy Land, Eretz Israel, the sole refuge of the persecuted Jewry. Today we remember our beloved ones taken from us violently... Their awful fate reminds us and implores us not to forget the redemption and building of the Jewish homeland, which alone can be the salvation for our dear holy souls. Be aware especially at this moment of the JNF's missions and enable this with your contribution to save the souls of our holy ones, to speedily redeem the land of our fathers and save the future of the rest of Israel".
