Vertical, square-ish painting in watercolour with ink lines. In the middle are two teenage, or maybe older teenage Jewish Orthodox boys in dark trousers, white shirts with tzitzit, and both in black kappas. The shirt of the boy on the left appears yellowish from the light, the shirt of the boy on the right appears pink-ish. The boy on the left looks at the boy on the right, who himself looks to the front. The boy on the right has slightly darkened glasses. Behind them is a young Black person with blue-looking hair, in shirts and T-Shirt. Behind all of them are two Jewish boys playing drums and a guitar collecting funds for something. Behind them is a woman in a T-shirt with long hair. All the scene takes place I front of glass entrance to the train station, with the sign saying

Composite scan, on the left of the postcard is the painting described before, on the right where there is the address superimposed is the front of the postcard, a photo of an unnamed Yemeni Jewish family sitting on carpets around another carpet with shisha and a kettle. From left to right there's — a man who appears to be in his thirties or forties with a headscarf and, over his shoulder, a talit; then a woman of similar age in ornate Yemeni dress and headscarf, a younger girl, an elderly man smoking shisha, and a boy reading a book. On top are two stamps. On the left is one priced 4.20 from the series "Art from the Holocaust" depicting an artwork Yehuda Bacon "To The Man Who Restored My Belief In Humanity" painted in Prague in 1945 in gouache, charcoal and pencil on paper. The painting depicts a man dragging another from a camp in a ray of light. On the right is a 8.50 stamp from the series "International Mail From Eretz Israel" signed "Airmail" depicting a tricot biplane above Kinneret (Lake Tiberias), below reprinted is the top of an old postcard with lake Kinneret.
