Album of Photographs – “Mem-Gimmel (43) Prisoners of Haganah” – Moshe Dayan
Photo-album given as a souvenir by "Mem-Gimmel (43) Prisoners of Haganah", [ca. mid 1940s].
73 photographs in an album, mostly photographs of caricatures of the 43 Haganah members, as well as group-photos, taken in "Mazra'a" detention camp near Acre, where administrative detainees were imprisoned during the British Mandate. Captions in handwriting. The album also includes several photocopies of newspaper articles. Moshe Dayan, one of the prisoners, is seen in several of the photographs. 10 additional photos not glued to the album, as well as a notice from the Jewish leaders calling upon the release of the prisoners.
The "Mem-Gimmel Prisoners of Haganah" affair shocked the Yishuv late in 1939. Forty three Haganah members were arrested while training as unit commanders, following a clash with Trans-Jordan Border Forces. Most of the members received long prison terms, but were released on February 17, 1941.
Average size of photos: 5X8 cm. Album: 21.5X30 cm. Good condition. Stains and tears, mainly at the beginning and at the end of the album and on the tissue guards.
