Printed leaf, Chevrat Tiferet Yerushalayim – aims and statutes of the Tiferet Yerushalayim society. [Jerusalem: Frumkin?, 1872].
The Tiferet Yerushalayim society was founded by R. Yisrael Dov Frumkin, as a joint organization of Ashkenazim and Sephardim, in order to support individuals who reach Jerusalem, orphans and the poor (especially those neglected by the Chalukah system of the Perushim community), in order to promote Haskalah ideas in the city.
The present leaf contains a short introduction, followed by a summary of the central aims of the society and 17 statutes, signed in print by the founders of the society, R. Yisrael Dov Frumkin, R. Avraham Zusman, R. Michel HaKohen, R. Bentzion Shlez and R. Eliezer of Volozhin, as well as the Rishon LeTzion R. Avraham Ashkenazi and R. David Ben-Shimon (Rav Devash). At the bottom of the leaf is an exemplar of the society's stamp and its address.
P. Grayevsky refers to the present leaf as a title page, but it is unclear if further leaves were printed.
