A Ze'ev Raban Illustrated Esther Scroll in Wooden Case, Bezalel, Jerusalem, Circa 1915

This small olivewood Esther scroll case features a scroll with scenes of the Purim story, and all these scenes were executed by the famed Bezalel school artist and teacher, Ze'ev Raban. The case has a painted scene of Jews praying at the Western Wall, and on the case it is marked "Bezalel Jerusalem". This dates to the 1920's, and is a rarity, due to the Raban illustrated scroll and the diminutive size of it's accompanying case.
