1947183797London: The Fortythree Publishing Co. Ltd Citadel Press Ltd 1947-48. First editions each stamped and dated by the Library of the Jewish American Committee. Number 9 April leads with a story about the bombing of Ben Yehuda Street in Jerusalem and the connection between British fascists and the Arab Legion. It also features an illustration of the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem meeting with Hitler in 1941. On 22 February 1948 three trucks and an armoured car exploded on Ben Yehuda Street killing up to 58 civilians and injuring up to 200 more. The attack was performed by Arab militants and British deserters although Abd al-Qadir claimed responsibility later that day in a leaflet. According to the article in this collection two months later further letters were mailed to MPs in the UK claiming that the attack was orchestrated by a Palestinian branch of the fascist British League at that time a part of Oswald Mosley's Union Movement. The article questions the veracity of the letters but nonetheless condemns the actions of British deserters in Palestine and the Arab Legion's acceptance of former Nazis. Other articles in this collection focus on exposing Mosley's work as well as reporting on antifascist activities South Africa's movement towards apartheid and local legislation. On Guard was published by the Jewish anti-fascist "43 Group". The paper "assumed a moderate non-sectarian identity which was both educative and campaigning. The function of On Guard was to raise anti-fascist conciousness and unite all sections of the public against the menace of fascism" Copsey p. 92 4 broadsheet newspapers bifolium leaf size 430 x 570 mm black letterpress on all pages half-tone photographic illustrations throughout. Red postage stamp to no. 13 p. 4. Closed tears mostly along fold lines as expected edges toned and creased some dust-soiling: a very good collection.

1999MS-45Boulder CO.: Westview Press 1999. This scholarly text is the first major account of the life and times of a merchant in nineteenth-century Iran or in the Middle East. Haj Muhammad Amin al-Zarb 1834-1898 rose from humble beginnings to become one of Irans wealthiest and most prominent merchants. He built up his wealth as a money changer a trader in textiles precious stones opium carpets agricultural products and staple foodstuffs amongst other goods and judicious transactions in land. Adept at cultivating powerful connections he became the principal supplier of luxury goods to the Shah his court and members of the ruling elite; served as private banker to the Shah his prime minister and influential bureaucrats; and became Master of the Mint. He had agents in all the main towns of Persia and Europe with correspondents in Asia and America.Amin al-Zarb was also an entrepreneur industrialist and innovator. Determined to bring to Iran the advances he had witnessed in Europe he invested in mining established factories with imported machinery such as glass china and silk reeling built a railway line and urged the Shah to establish a national bank. He also became an advocate of reform and curbs on arbitrary rule. He befriended the famous Islamic reformer Jamal al-Din Afghani. An innovator in business Amin al-Zarb led a very traditional life at home. Gifted at making money he was nevertheless a pious man who contributed generously to religious and charitable causes. Shireen Mahdavi draws on hitherto unpublished family archives to write not only a biography of a fascinating nineteenth-century merchant but also a social history of the period. Her portrait of Amin al-Zarb also provides important insights into the economic social and political role played by merchants in Iran and elsewhere in the Middle East in the nineteenth century. 286 pp. Illustrated.
