Exhibition of fire marks

Fire Mark from the UK

Again on Ha’aetz.com there is a very interesting story [LINK] about so called fire marks from Israel. I was quite intrigued by this story. These fire (insurance) marks were the sign that insurance was payed for the specific building and in the British Mandate period quite common.

Until February 25 the fire marks are on display at the HerzLilienblum Museum in Tel Aviv, next to fire fighting equipment from the early days of the state. Nice!
