Four letters from great Admors.

* Letter in the handwriting and with the signature of the Admor of Sanz-Zamigrad Rabbi Aryeh Leibush Halberstam [1912 - 2007].

* Letter in the handwriting and with the signature of the Admor of Tshechov, Rabbi Avraham Abish Kanner [1894-1984, author of Ohel Kedoshim].

* Interesting letter with an addition in the handwriting and with the signature of the Admor of Zamigrad, Rabbi Sinai Halberstam of Brooklyn. In the letter, the Admor indicates that he meant to publish the book Divrei Chaim by his grandfather, but due to the difficulties entailed in the printing expenses, he has been prevented from doing so: 'If only I headed a great and respected yeshiva ... ten thousand copies could have been printed ... but for people in my poor position, it is very difficult ... And it does not befit me to be a travelling salesman going from door to door to sell the books ... because here in New York, due to our many sins, even a peddler shouting "Who wants to buy life" would not be received ... therefore I have decided to revoke my initial intention, and I undertake to stop this project of mine, and as I acquired reward for the request, etc ..."

* Letter with the signature of the Admor of Gerlitz, Rabbi Baruch Halberstam.

Various sizes and conditions, overall very fine condition.
