Tel-Aviv, a story, by Theodor Herzl. Hebrew: N.S. [Nahum Sokolow]. Published by "Russian Zionist Organization", "HaTzfira" press, Warsaw, (1902). "First book". First Hebrew translation of the utopian novel by Theodor Herzl, "Altneuland", published in German the same year. The translation was done by Nahum Sokolow and he was the one who chose the Hebrew title of the book - "Tel-Aviv". This unique copy includes a part of Sokolow's translation of "Altneuland" (two first chapters and part of the third chapter only), in original wrappers, different from wrappers of other (complete) copies of this book. Printed on the wrapper is a short text explaining the nature of this special copy: "Tel-Aviv is the new Zionist story about to be published in the Ashkenazi language, titled 'Altneuland', copied from Dr. Herzl's manuscript with the authorization of the Russian Zionist Organization. Published as brochures. The number of brochures will be 6-7, and will be finished shortly" (Hebrew). Copies of "Tel-Aviv" in the NLI and in other libraries are complete copies of this novel. The text on the wrapper indicates that the novel was printed in sequences, in several brochures, which were later bound together. 32 pp, 22 cm. Detached signature (pp 3-14). Slight tears and creases at margins of some leaves. Some stains. Provenance: Estate of Sokolow-Raczkowski families.
