Lot 107:
Rare – Kuntres Torat Mikveh by the Admor Rabbi Chaneh Halberstam of Kołaczyce – first edition, Reisha 1937.
Maran the Admor of Kolshitz (Kołaczyce) was a Gaon, who like his grandfather, the Admor author of Divrei Chaim, was an expert on Hilchot Mikva’ot. During trips he made, he would repeat the Mishnayot of tractate Mikva’ot. In this book, Rabbeinu wrote down the halachic rules of Mikva’ot and added the foreword of his grandfather, Maran the Divrei Chaim, to these Halachot. This book was printed for the first time in Reisha, in 1937,and following his grandfather in his book Divrei Chaim, he too published it anonymously.
An extremely rare book. Only a few copies have survived, apparently because it was printed shortly before the Holocaust.
[2] leaves, 42 pp. [3] leaves.
Good condition. New binding.
