"Health and Happiness" Handwritten by the Rebbe Himself - Letter Loaded with Blessings, 12 Shevat, 1967


Letter loaded with blessings from the Admo"r of Lubavitch to his only cousin, the poetess Zelda Schneurson Mishkovsky (known as "HaMeshoreret Zelda") - a celebrated and famous poetess. 12 Shevat, 1967, Brooklyn, New York.


The Rebbe blesses with abundance: "May it be His will that this be a good start for glad tidings from here on, in all matters, including family matters, private matters and public matters. And may we share [these glad tidings] in proper health, joy and good-heartedness. The Rebbe then repeats the significant words in his hand: "From health and happiness."


During this difficult period, in which a plague is raging the world over, and people are closed up in their homes, it is so important and comforting to possess a "heavenly note" - an expert amulet from one of the unique tzaddikim of the generations, in which the words "health" and "happiness" are written in his very hand.


The Admo"r Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson [1902-1994] was the seventh in the dynasty of Admo"rs of Lubavitch. He served as Admo"r from 1951 until his passing. He was a tremendous gaon in all realms of Torah and his net was - and still is - cast across the world.


[1] leaf official stationery, 30 cm. Typewritten on an aerogram, with the addition of [3] words and several letters and corrections in the Rebbe's hand, concluding with his signature.

Fine condition. Aging stains and fold marks. Tears in the margins as a result of opening the aerogram; without damage to text.
