The Hapoel convention was a national and international sports event that was held once every four years under the auspices of the President of the State of Israel. The public council of the convention was headed by the general secretary of the General Workers’ Union. The first convention was held in 1928, and the 15th and last convention was held in 1995.

In the beginning, there was a national gathering of all members of Hapoel, athletes in a variety of fields, who held meetings and competitions that lasted several days. As the number of “Hapoel” members increased, so did the nature of the event. At the center of the convention – international and national events.

A rare Large original design sign poster, hand-painted gouache on thick cardboard “Visit the Zoo”

The Tel Aviv Zoo was a zoo founded in 1938 and located in central Tel Aviv. The zoo closed in 1980 and the animals were moved to the Zoological Center of Tel Aviv-Ramat Gan. The Gan Ha’Ir shopping mall now occupies the zoo’s site.

History
When Rabbi Dr. Mordecai Schornstein arrived in Tel Aviv from Copenhagen in 1935, he had purchased some animals in Italy, and started a pet shop at 15 Shenkin Street which he named ‘Gan Hayot’ (‘zoo’ in Hebrew). In 1938 he started the zoo at 65 Hayarkon Street. After some lions and tigers were donated to the zoo, it caused too much disruption in the neighborhood, and was moved to its location behind city hall in 1939.
In the late 1960s and 1970s the zoo was one of the few zoos in the world to successfully breed flamingos.
In 1981, the animals were moved out of the city to the Tel Aviv-Ramat Gan Zoological Center. The Gan Ha’Ir shopping mall now occupies the site of the former zoo. The zoo was home to four elephants when it was closed, two of which were moved to Ramat Gan and two of which were moved elsewhere. Three are still alive as of 2010.
