Interesting, rare handwritten ketubah, written at a detention camp in Cyprus for a couple married in Bergen-Belsen immediately after the Shoah.
Ketubah written with blue ink on a notebook page from Sunday, 5th of Adar Alef, 5708 (Feb 15, 1948), in Famagusta, Cyprus. Berel Dov and Malkha Faulk married immediately after the war, in 1946, in Bergen-Belson. This ketubah was written for them in the detention camp in Cyprus to replace their ketubah which had disappeared, signed by new witnesses, at the instruction, wording, and stamp (and perhaps also handwriting) of Rabbi Yehoshua Menachem Aaronberg, who served as Chief Rabbi of the Cyprus Detention Camps (then was Av Beit Din in Tel Aviv). The ketubah is accompanied by an additional certificate with their pictures from the Rabbinical Court in Tel Aviv, signed by Rabbi Aryeh Leib Ravitz - Av Beit Din of Tel Aviv-Yafo and two other judges. Folding marks and minor tears, given within lamination. Overall good condition.
