Letter by Rabbi Zvi Hirsh Grodzinsky - Omaha, USA
Autograph letter signed by R. Zvi Hirsh Grodzinsky. Omaha, Nebraska (USA), Nissan 1942.
Words of praise and approval of the kashrut "in honor of the respected partners", owners of a kosher factory - for the production of kosher salami for Passover.
R. Zvi Hirsh Grodzinsky was a leading US rabbi (1858-1948), close disciple and relative of R. David Shlomo Grodzinsky Rabbi of Iwye (and father of Rabbi Chaim Ozer Grodzinsky). Rabbi Tzvi Hirsh studied in the Volozhin Yeshiva and in the Kovno Kollel under the tutelage of Rabbi Yitzchak Elchanan Spector. He immigrated to the US in 1891 and served for over sixty years in the rabbinate. Although he lived in a religiously underdeveloped city, his comprehension of the Torah was profound and he published important works of halachic and Talmudic novellae.
Official stationery, 28 cm. Written in pencil. Good-fair condition. Brittle paper with minor damages.
