Description
Alpha Beita Ivrith Metulteleth U-metzuyereth Be-arba Kubyoth [“Hebrew Alphabet Depicted on Four Cubes.”]
Four cardboard blocks 3 5/8 x 3 5/8 x 3 5/8 inches. On each side of the cube there appears a Hebrew letter; within the letter, several objects beginning with that letter; and at bottom, those objects spelled out. To compensate for the fact that the Hebrew alphabet has but 22 letters, Shin and Sin have been treated as two distinct entities, and the final side is devoted to the five final leters (othiyoth sophiyoth). Multicolor.
Complete with 8 x 8 x 4 in. storing box with illustrated lid. Box has both Hebrew and Cyrilic text. Light stains.
