Collelction of Pins – Nautical Schools
Eight pins – nautical schools in Palestine.
1-3. Three pins with the emblem of a school for marine officers in Acre – shield with an anchor inside and seven Stars of David. One of the pins was awarded in a "Marine Ability" contest.
4. Pin – "Nautical School Haifa", with a triangle and a ship in it. It is possible that this pin is from the Nautical school of the Hebrew Technion in Haifa, first phase of the school for marine officers in Acre (prior to moving the school).
5-6. Two pins with the emblem of "Mevo'ot Yam" nautical school – anchor with a curving fish.
7. A pin designed as an anchor with a Star of David. Apparently a commander pin of Nautical Officers School.
8. Pin – nautical course in Nizanim youth village – anchor with a steering wheel and the legend "Nizanim".
Size and condition vary.
