In honor of its twentieth anniversary, the Israeli airline issued a commemorative gold coin, designed by Ben Shahn, with the quotation from the book of Isaiah, 43:6, "Bring back my sons from far and my daughters from the end of the earth." This rare poster, baring the same biblical verse, was likely issued at the same time. We could find no other copies at auction.
