Second showing man has text we are unable to translate but it includes the date of 1928. Tiny and minor age traces on rim. No backpaper, probably as issued. Third has Hebrew text at top while below is "The Jews Look To America For Help." Reverse backpaper (a little off-center) reads "Remember Relief Ball Wed. March 15, 1916 At Symphony Hall Boston." Last reads "American Jewish War Relief/In Their Name I Plead." This has 2 tiny dots of cello off the front edge but showing very little. Reverse has W&H backpaper. A long cello split on the back but cello still lays tight against the collet. Other than this one, condition is still Exc. overall.
