"Published for the good-bye party (dress rehearsal)." Tel Aviv, 1989. Hebrew. Poster advertising the "Farewell to Life" good-bye party held by Dan Ben-Amotz for his friends – Israeli cultural figures, politicians, and celebrities – at the "Hamam" club in Old Jaffa. Ben-Amotz organized the party when he knew his days were numbered. At the end of the party, he handed each of the roughly 300 invited guests a gift with a personalized note, along with the present poster, created by the renowned Israeli graphic designer David Tartakover.

Stains (many stains to lower portion of poster). Dan Ben Amotz (born Moshe [Mussia] Tehilimzeigger, 1924-1989), native of Poland, one of the quintessential Renaissance men of Israeli culture, active, among other things, as an author, journalist, translator, screenwriter, satirist, radio personality, and actor. In his younger days, he had served as a member of the Palmach underground and as an agent working on behalf of illegal Jewish immigrants to Palestine in the final years of the British Mandate. Ben-Amotz was responsible for some of the most popular literary works of the early decades of the State of Israel, including "Yalkut HaKzavim" (in collaboration with Haim Hefer; 1951), "Lizkor VeLishko'ah" ("To Remember and Forget, " 1968), "Milon Olami LeIvrit Meduberet" ("World-class Dictionary of Spoken Hebrew, " in collaboration with Netiva Ben-Yehuda, 1972), and many other pieces of literature; alongside Haim Hefer, he produced and took part in the acclaimed show "Tel-Aviv HaKtanah" ("Little Tel Aviv"); on radio, he was one of the principal participants in the popular program "Sheloshah BeSirah Ahat" ("Three in One Boat"; 1955-59); he was a widely read columnist, writing for the daily newspaper "Hadashot, " and, in general, was one of the more prominent figures in Tel Aviv's bohemian circles. Dan Ben-Amotz's reputation and legacy were severely tarnished after his death, following the posthumous publication by his friend, Amnon Dankner, of a controversial biography that raised allegations of a history of sexual misbehavior and exploitation of women.
