1899 autographed letter signed on oblong paper that folds into an envelope. DAVIS TRIETSCH (1870-1935), early Zionist leader. In 1899, Davis Trietsch, a delegate to the Third Zionist Congress at Basel, attempted to get an endorsement for Jewish colonization in Cyprus, especially for Romanian Jews. Although, his proposal was refused by the council; Trietsch persisted, convincing two dozen Romanian Jews to immigrate to the land. Twenty-eight Romanian families followed these and received assistance from the Jewish Colonization Association. These settlers established farms at Margo, and at Asheriton. The Jewish Colonization Association continued to give a small support to the work in Cyprus. Most Jewish communities during the early 1900s were located in NicosiaIn 1901 the Jewish population of the island was 63 males and 56 females. In 1902, Theodore Herzl introduced the idea of establishing Cyprus as the "Jewish Homeland." This idea was presented in a pamphlet to the Parliamentary committee on alien immigration in London, bearing the title "The Problem of Jewish Immigration to England and the United States Solved by Furthering the Jewish Colonization of Cyprus." I previously operated Queen Esther Judaica Autographs (UACC Registered Dealer #164) and guarantee the authenticity of the autograph for the life of the item.
