A joint one-off publication of Israel's newspapers on the day of the proclamation of the state of Israel.

On May 14, 1948, 'the last day of foreign rule', the Hebrew newspapers of Palestine released this joint publication titled 'The Day of The State', announcing the establishment of the independent State of Israel.

The first page of the publication contains the text of the Declaration of Independence and states that all the restrictions and regulations of the White Paper (1939) are no longer valid. The second page contains sixteen encapsulated articles concerning the events of the day and declaring a global mobilisation, in order to defend the newly-formed state from the Arab Legion. The 14th of May was a Friday, and the publication states that the Chief Rabbinate granted a special permission to 'uninterrupted mobilisation all throughout Shabbat'.

Single broadside newsprint sheet, printed on both sides, with photographic illustrations. Evenly browned, central fold with some minor closed cracks, some minor staining (58 x 42 cm); text in Hebrew.
