Two dishes and a charity box from the Jewish Home, Amsterdam

the dishes painted in blue with the building flanked by laurel sprays, above a charity box and with inscription in Dutch The Jewish Hospital, dated 14 December 1925; the tin charity box as depicted on the commemorative plate, painted with red letters on black ground The Jewish Hospital.

The Jewish hospital was founded in 1911.  These pieces are connected with a fund raising campaign that allowed them to move to a new building on Nieiwe Achtergracht in 1926.  They expanded again just before the war but on March 1, 1943, all of the residents, both staff and patients, were deported to the camps.
