Handwritten booklet (twenty pages) – Torah Tzivah discourse for Simchat Torah night of 5654 (1893), by Rebbe Rashab of Lubavitch.

This manuscript was possibly handwritten by the Rayatz in his youth (in 1893, at the time this discourse was delivered by his father the Rashab, he was 13 years old). There are no known examples of the Rayatz's handwriting from his teenage years.
Published in Sefer HaMaamarim 5654. The present manuscript contains an incomplete copying of the discourse (9 out of 11 printed pages).
[10] leaves (twenty written pages), and blank leaves. 21 cm. Good condition. Stains.Dark stains to several leaves (slightly affecting some letters).
