א גיטע מאשץ אויף אלע ישועות – Handwritten letter by Rabbi Shalom Halberstam, son of Rabbi Yechezkel of Shinowa and head of Stropkov Dynasty

L etter written entirely in the handwriting of Rabbi Shalom Halberstam of Stropkov, in which he requests one hundred dollars to help him financially because, "tzeddaka is a very good מאשץ אויף אלע ישועות…"

Rabbi Avraham Shalom Halberstam of Stropkov (1856 – 1940) was the son of Rabbi Yechezkel Shraga of Shinowa and grandson of Rabbi Chaim of Sanz. He was a great miracle worker, especially when it came to helping childless couples.
