This is certainly a most unique and beautifully illustrated haggada printed in Jerusalem in 2001 when the FORMER Prime Minister, Ehud Olmert was the Mayor of the city.
The printing of this hagada was sponsored by the City of Jerusalem, the Office for a  Environmental Quality, and the Schocken newspaper chain.
The theme in this Hagadah is saving the Jerusalem environment and keeping it green and clean, something which Olmert didn't do during his tenure in the city!
As you can see from the scans, there's lots of green stuff, rivers and cute illustrations. Also notice at the bottom of the page, a quote is taken from the hagada and then reinterpreted to something relevant to today's modern day environment like our need to keep our oceans and reservoirs clean,   not dumping, pollution, depletion of natural resources and more!  Here's one classic line. WHO KNOWS ONE? Who knows how many worlds there are in the universe? We have only one....
There's also a reference to mad cow disease
(see the gallery image)
which was (and still is) relevant in the plague of Noxious beasts (cow symbol, middle row far right). Wow, I can't wait till the bird flu haggada comes out! :)
The entire traditional text of the haggada is present in the first  16 pages and the rest of this hagadah is made up of advertising and events taking place during the Pessach Holiday.
Altogether  48 LARGE pages measuring 8 x 11.5 inches.
Condition: VERY GOOD.
