Books with the Handwritten Signature of Maran the Gaon Rabbi Chaim Kanievsky

Collection of three rare books that had belonged to Maran the great Gaon Rabbi Chaim Kanievsky, with his handwritten signature. 


* Sefer Piskei Teshuvah, authored by the holy Gaon Rabbi Avraham Piterkovsky of Lodz. Facsimile edition. Jerusalem, 1967. The personal copy of Maran the Gaon Rabbi Chaim Kanievsky. 

On the flyleaf, his handwritten signature from relatively early years. 


* Sefer Hamanhig, by Rabbeinu Avraham ben Rabbi Nosson Hayarchi. Contains the logic of all customs, Dinim and Halachot. Published by Levin Epstein. Jerusalem, 1951. 

On the flyleaf, the early stamp of Rabbi Chaim Kanievsky - Bnei Berak and on the flyleaf, his handwritten signature: מספרי חיים קניבסקי (From the library of Chaim Kanievsky). 

Slightly detached binding. Good-very good condition. 


* Sefer Lamah Titra'u authored by Rabbi Sholom Friedman. Against unnecessary spending on weddings. The book was approbated by leading rabbis, including one by the Steipler, Maran the Gaon Rabbi Chaim Kanievsky's father, on the first leaf. This approbation arrived late and was therefore printed on the first leaf. 

The other approbators include Rabbi Eliezer Menachem Mann Shach, Rabbi Pinchas Epstein, Rabbi Yaakov Landau, Rabbi Yechezkel Lowenstein, Rabbi Avraham Shlomo Katz of Riskva, Rabbi Shmuel Wosner, Rabbi Yisroel Weltz, Rabbi Yosef Naftali Stern and Rabbi David Halevi Jungreiss. 


Good-very good overall condition.
