Postcard: Waiting for an incoming missile alert in Tel Aviv Jaffa, Allenby Station III
[Posted: 2026-03-19 11-32 UTC±0] 

Vertical painting in watercolour with ink colours. In the middle is a class light column at the entrance to Allenby station, highlighting the number of the entrance (B), the name of the station in Hebrew, Arabic, English, the signs that the entrance is accessible and has an elevator. Below is a sign placed saying in Hebrew that the way down is a shelter. Around stand people waiting, on the right is a couple with a woman in the back hugging a man in the front. On the left is a man looking in the distance holding a phone. More people are to the right in the back to the couple. Behind is a bauhaus style residential building, a tree and wires. Above is the sunrise with dark blueish and brownish clouds above.

A composite scan of the whole back of the postcard, the painting occupies most of the painting on the left. On the right, above the area where the address goes is the front of the postcard with the graphic tracing of the first, red line of central Israel metrotram drawn over the map. There are two stamps above. The stamp on the left is a 5ILS stamp from the series "Embroidery in Eretz Israel" signed "Judaica Embroidery" with an embroidered sight of Machpella Cave in Hebron. The stamp on the right is a 9.10ILS "Ethiopian embroidery" from the series "Embroidery in Eretz Israel", dark blue stamp with a colourful animal creature, perhaps a lion.
