Thanks so much for the help,
actually, I did remember that the script had been Hebrew, but could not believe it and persuaded myself that there must have been Latin instead (Yiddish being a Germanic language). An interesting fact in connection to this: there is a 1920s poster urging (in Belarusian) younger people to subscribe to the new komsomol newspapers, with "Юнгер арбатэр" (in Cyrillic!) among them. There must have been this tradition as well (installed between the wars).
