The Pollack House on Herzl Street

Herewith some pictures (July 17th 2009) from the Pollack House (1910) on Herzl Street no. 1. In this building was the studio of Avraham Soskin (1881- 1963). Thanks to him we have photo archives of the early history of Tel Aviv. His most famous picture is of course: the seashell lottery, 3 km north of Yafo on April 11th 1909. I think it is time that the Municipality of Tel Aviv start to honor her most famous photographer and start to restore the building and re-open his studio as a museum!
