Interesting letter handwritten and signed by Rabbi Binyamin Zilber—Binyamin HaTzaddik.
To the administration of the Ohel Torah kollel where many gedolim studied (Rav Elyashiv, Rav Wazner, and more). Rav Zilber, who took upon himself to manage the book collection of the kollel, asks in the letter to be paid for his work, after three years of doing it on a volunteer basis, because it took away from his time and he was in bad financial condition. In the margins, the decision of the administration is written in pencil “to add half a pound for him…” | Rav Binyamin Yehoshua Zilber (1916-2008) was a remnant of the Mussar movement, posek halacha and member of the Council of Torah Sages. Never held an official Torah position. Dedicated his time to studying Torah and authored dozens of books, most on halacha and mussar. | Filing holes, signs of folding. 20x12cm. Generally good condition.
