Rubin Mass Publishing House

Rubin Mass founded the Rubin Mass Publishing House in Tel Aviv in 1933. He had to borrow money to establish the company. The new publishing house turned out to be one of the most successful publishing houses in Israel.

Mass had originally worked for the Jalkut bookstore since 1920 and bought it in 1926. He also worked as an independent publisher from 1933 until his departure. When his brother was arrested after the Machtergreifung, he decided to leave his country and immigrated to Palestine.
