The invitations to the Focsani Congress sent by David Rintzler, were stamped with a special stamp showing the Jewish date: "Kaf-Gimel Kishlev TRM'B 1881"
In the middle of the stamp, within two concentrical circles, it was written:
- Let us rise and go to our Land and our Peace
- The Union of Workers of Focsani for the Holy Land
Four interesting motives also appear in the center of the stamp:
- A plow – for the ploughing of the land,
- A sickle for harvesting,
- Residential buildings,
- Fruit-bearing trees.
This was how the Focsani Jewish pioneers saw their home in Israel.
