COUNCIL OF JEWISH WOMEN OF N.S.W, 1923, badge in gold and enamel (9ct; 8.56g; 24.5mm), by Amor, pin-back with safety chain, reverse inscribed, 'To/Mrs Julius Rosenfeld/Vice President/C.J.W/from the/Committee/10.8.27'. Good very fine.

The following is part of an article published in The Hebrew Standard of Australasia (Sydney) on Friday 12 August 1927, page 5 giving a send-off to Mrs Rosenfeld who was leaving Sydney at the end of the month on a trip to America with her husband.

'Mrs.?Julius?Rosenfeld?was the guest of honour at a conversazione given by the Council of Jewish women at the Wentworth on Wednesday afternoon. Dr Fanny Reading, who wore a bottle green tailored costume, presented the guest with a gold Council badge and a horse shoe bouquet of flowers. In a short address she eulogised?Mrs.?Rosenfeld's services as Vice-president and the kindly manner in which she came to the assistance of the executive whether the call was for service or for funds. She felt that whilst they could ill-spare her, the Council would benefit by the observations?Mrs.?Rosenfeld?would make, and on her return would adapt to local conditions. She wished both Mr. and?Mrs. Rosenfeld a happy journey and safe return to Sydney.'
