Lot 219:
Sefer Shulchan Aruch, Orech Chaim, halachot of Shabbat, by Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liady, the Baal HaTanya.
The title page has a stamp from Rabbi Yehoshua Brisk, Av Beit Din of Tisa-Dada, and the blank first leaf has a long inscription handwritten and signed by his son and successor, Rabbi David Yaakov Brisk.
Pages are a little brittle, moth holes, binding detached, overall fair to good condition.
Rabbi Yehoshua Brisk (died 1908) was the son of Rabbi Moshe Shmuel Brisk, Av Beit Din of Neurad, father of the Maharam of Brisk. He was a gadol of Hungary who was connected with tzaddikim of the generation. He would travel to the Admor Divrei Chaim of Sanz and the Darchei Tshuva of Munkatch, Rabbi Yehoshua of Belz, and Rabbi Zvi Hirsch of Liska. He served in the rabbinate of Tisa-Dad for around 45 years.
Rabbi David Yaakov Brisk (1880-1944) succeeded his father and was close to the Minchas Eliezer of Munkatch. He perished in the Shoah.
