A. Halachic answer (stencil with many handwritten glosses and comments) regarding a real case about a childless widow who unintentionally married a stranger, a Holocaust survivor. The answer is given by Rabbi Shimon Efrati based on a ruling of Rabbi Yitzchak Ha'Levi Herzog which supports the Heter in an hour of need.
Rabbi Shimon Efrati was one of the pioneer rabbis who answered the complex halachic questions that had arisen after to the Holocaust.
B. Long religious essay in the handwriting of Rabbi Shmuel Eliezri (1905-1991), the rabbi of the Bayit Va'Gan neighborhood in Jerusalem, about the law of 'Make Be'Patish'. 15 pp.
C. 2 pages in the handwriting of Rabbi Yisrael Porat (1886-1974) about "the seven species – their blessing and measures". Rabbi Porat was one of the greatest students of Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak Ha'Cohen Kook. He served as the rabbi of Cleveland for more than fifty years and was among the founders of the Telz-Clevelnad Yeshiva.
D. Long halachic answer (4 large pages) from Rabbu Nissan Tloschkin (1881-1970) about installing a mezuzah in holiday resorts. He was one of the greatest rabbis in the USA and one of the closest people to the last Rabbi of Chabad.
E. Religious essay in the handwriting of Rabbi Mordechai David Ilan (1915-1981) about the issue of 'Velo Yizach ha'Choshen' (an additional, shortened draft). This exceptional genius served as a member of the rabbinical court of Tel Aviv-Jaffa and most of his time spent studying the Torah. He was an expert on the Kodashim tractate and wrote several books on it.
