The "Jewish Day" is recorded by some observers as "the greatest Jewish spectacle ever staged in Chicago", and it took place on July 3, 1933, at Soldier Field, before more than 125,000 people. It was sponsored by the Jewish Agency for Palestine (the quasi-governmental authority of the Jewish community in Palestine), with the President of the Zionist Congress, Dr. Chaim Weizmann, specially invited as the keynote speaker.
The musical-theatrical pageant "The Romance of A People" was the culminating event of the day (which took five years to plan) which commemorated Jewish contributions to the city of Chicago since its founding in 1833. The "Jewish Day" was one of around 24 such days planned by the Fair Committee to commemorate the contributions of various nationalities which composed the city of Chicago - as the Jews identified themselves closely with Palestine, the Jewish Agency was involved in the organizations and hence the themes of the event and this token.

Obverse:
The Jewish Orphanage Norwood around Magen David with Mazel (in Hebrew) in center.


Reverse: The Jewish Orphanage Norwood around horseshoe and in center of horseshoe, “Good luck to you wherever you are, at home, abroad, or on the sea”.


This token was issued in Bronze (27mm).

Norwood’s Patron is Her Majesty The Queen and its Patron of Children’s Services is Cherie Blair. The Orphanage was founded in 1795 and moved to Norwood (South London) England in 1866. It was named the Jewish Orphanage in 1928 and closed in 1963.

During World War II, the children were evacuated to homes in Worthing and Hertford and the building was used by the London Fire Brigade as a training center. After the war, the number of children at the Orphanage started to decline as they became more integrated within the community. In 1956, the name was again changed to the Norwood Home for Jewish Children.
