Unsold
Shana Tova telegram from Rebbe Yosef Yitzchak Schneersohn – the Rayatz of Lubavitch. 1940s (ca. 1940-1947).
Typewritten on a Western Union telegram form.
The telegram begins with a list of dozens of rebbes, rabbis and public figures in the United States. The telegram may have been sent by the rebbe to one of his secretaries while he was away from home, in order that they prepare copies of Shana Tova letters to those listed in the Telegram.
Enclosed: telegram printed on a Western Union telegram form, sent from Tel Aviv to Rebbe Rayatz at Eastern Parkway, 770, Brooklyn NY – correction of an error in an earlier telegram to the Rebbe (inscription in the margin, presumably handwritten by the secretary R. Nissan Mindel).
Approx. 21X15.5 cm. Good-fair condition. Brittle paper. Creases and folding marks. Marginal closed and open tears. Minor stains.
