An Autograph Postcard from Theodor Herzl – Italy, 1904
Postcard with a greeting handwritten by Theodor (Binyamin Ze'ev) Herzl. Florence, Italy, January 1904.
Undivided postcard, with illustration of the Basilica Santa Anna Maggiore in Rome. With a short greeting handwritten by Theodor Herzl: "saluti e baci di Herzl" [Italian: greetings and kisses from Herzl], dated; 26 January 1904.
The postcard was sent from Florence to Ferrara (Italy), to Gabriella Ravenna (daughter of Felice Ravenna, one of the founders of the Italian Zionist Federation and its president, member of the Zionist Executive and one of Herzl's supporters), during Herzl's visit to Italy in January 1904, in which he met with the Pope and the King of Italy seeking to enlist their support of Zionism. Herzl died about six months after this visit, making it his last journey in the interest of promoting Zionist aims.
9X14 cm. Good condition. Stains. Peeling and small tears to top (slightly affecting the dedication), and a crease to upper right corner (on the dedication).
