Two rare wooden works, created in the 1930s by the late Yosef Tribelski, one of the Ginosar notaries who was imprisoned in Acre prison, were recently donated to the Underground Prisoners Museum in Acre by his widow.

Tribelsky was arrested along with other notaries following a conflict over the use of water from the Tzalmon Stream between Kibbutz Ginosar and residents of the nearby Arab village of Ghuyir Abu Shusha.
In October 1939, a Notarim guard guarding Sdot Ginusar was attacked, and following the incident, ten of the Notarim were arrested and sentenced to imprisonment in Acre Prison.
During his imprisonment, Tribelski created two extraordinary works with meticulous handwork and the help of broken glass: an olive wood tank, decorated with shells, which was dedicated to his parents, and a wooden boat that was sent as a gift to Ginosar's children as a symbol of the ships of the illegal immigrants who arrived in the Land of Israel.
