Postcard advertising a speech urging Jews to convert to Christianity. The card was issued by the “West German Association for Israel in Koln” in 1906 and advertises a speech by Preacher J. Goldstern to women, the topic: “From my work among the Jews in Frankfurt”.

The organization sponsoring the speech was apparently a Christian missionary society whose main aim was to convert Jews to Christianity. The preacher, “J. Goldstern”, was almost certainly a converted Jew himself.
