Background: After the Yom Kippur war, the Chabad Rebbe turned to Rabbi Chaim Tzvi Lipsker, who was a lieutenant colonel in the IDF and a prominent Chabad chassid, with a request that he print Chabad books at the IDF base in Fayed. A special permit from Ariel Sharon, who was among the commanders of the war, was required for the printing. He of course fulfilled the Rebbe's request without any refusal. This print has a well-known letter from the Rebbe with the request for the printing. There is also a photograph of the printing at the base which depicts the base commander with Chabad chassidim.
Condition: Fine-very fine. In two of the volumes, isolated leaves are detached.
