1. Alshem [Anonymous], bi-monthly. [editor: Ari Even-Zahav]. Tel Aviv: M. Shoham Press, 1924. First issue (presumably, no more issues were published).
The introduction to the issue states: "We must provide anonymous literature – literature without the author's name. When the name of the artist, young or well-known, does not appear alongside the work, the work will be presented to the public without any 'advocate' and the expert will judge according to the work rather than the author… this method in publishing will lead to a revolution in critique". 80 pp + [1] plate, 21.5 cm.
