French Jewish couple of the resistance
This photogenic young pair assisted the French Jewish resistance group, "Armee Juive".
They look like very nice people - hopefully they survived.

Hildegard Wolff, German-Jewish survivor, reads at home
You'd think this was a propaganda photo for one of those nazi tracts that extolled the virtues of German womanhood - it even looks as if she's wearing a dirndl!

Teenagers play in the streets.
The one and only Israeli car - Sussita! It was manufactured in Israel during the 1960s and 1970s, and became very popular mainly due to the fact that it was considerably cheaper then foreign-made cars (of which very few were in the market in Israel back then anyways). Aside from that, government agencies were forced to buy Sussita cars as well.
The car had a shoddy built - it was made of fiberglass with a metal skeleton, and had the habit of suddenly stopping or even falling apart. At first, the skeleton as supposed to be made of wood, but this idea was soon abondoned after initial testing proved that the materials would come apart after a short drive. The shape of the car was not very fashionable either. There was a rumour in Israel that camels really liked the fiberglass built of the Sussita, and so if a car is parked long enough, a camel might come and take a bite out of it.
There were attempts to export the Sussita car to Europe, but these attempts failed. After the 1970s, foreign cars became more availabe and cheaper in Israel, and the Sussita was unable to compete in such a large new market. Manufacturing of these cars ceased in the 1980s.
Despite all its faults, the Sussita will always be remembered fondly in Israel.

Serious young man.
