A letter from Rabbi Eliezer Yehuda Finkel, head of Mir Yeshiva, to the recruiting office in Jerusalem confirming that a certain boy "is a student at our Yeshiva and the study of the Torah is his craft."
The letter, from May 1955, was typewritten on the official stationery of Mir Yeshiva and is hand-signed by Rabbi Finkel.
Rabbi Finkel was born in 1879 to his father Rabbh Nathan Zvi Finkel, 'The Saba of Slabodka'. He was the son-in-law of Rabbi Elitahu Baruch Kamai and his substitute as head of Mir Yeshiva in Belarus. After the Holocaust, he founded the Mir Yeshiva in Jerusalem. He died in 1965.
Very good condition
