Kuntress Ketz HaYamin from the book Nachala L'Yisrael, by Rabbi Yechiel Michel Hibner Av Beit Din of Nizniow. [Lemberg, 1876].
First publication of an article on the topic of calculations of the Redemption, by the Rebbe Tzemach Tzedek - "Nachala L'Yisrael - Ketz HaYamin, a blessing left and found in the possessions of the holy Rabbi…Menachem Mendel of Lubavitch, disciple of the rabbi and also his grandson. (Some contest that these are the words of the author of the Tanya himself, the truth shall be received from whoever said it".
[4] leaves. 24.5 cm. Fair condition. Wear and worming.
The book Nachala L'Yisrael was printed by the author in separate kuntressim. This kuntress is especially rare. [Evidently, due to the sensitivity of the topic of calculations of the Redemption and because of the well-known rule that such matters should not be publicized]. The renowned Chabad researcher R' Yehoshua Mondshine, printed this article in his book Migdal Oz (Kfar Chabad, 1980, pp. 492-503), and he writes that he did not find even one copy with these rare leaves in any Israeli library. Only in the Lubavitch library in the US, two copies of these leaves exist and they differ one from another. See enclosed material.

Siddur Torah Or, prayers according to Nusach HaAri and following the rulings of Ba'al HaTanya, published by the worldwide Chabad Chassidism association. Brooklyn, [1941].
The well-known edition of Siddur Torah Or, edited by Rabbi Avraham David Lavat. Reputedly, the Rebbe the Rayatz gave this edition as a gift to his son-in-law, Rebbe Menachem Mendel Schneerson of Lubavitch, the Chabad Rebbe, and he used it every day.
Later, more editions of Siddur Torah Or were printed but the 1941 edition has several variations from the others. For example, at the end of the 1941 edition, another section appears with Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur prayers containing piyyutim and the repetition of the Shatz (leader of the prayers) which seldom appear in a siddur, but rather in machzorim for the High Holidays.
[3], 5-233; [1], 37, 39-40 leaves. Lacking last leaf. 21 cm. Good condition. Stains. Old binding.

Tikunei HaZohar, written by the Tana Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai. Lvov, [1791].
Copy of the first Amshinov Rebbes. On the title page and on the last leaf are stamps of Rabbi "Menachem Kalisz Av Beit Din of Amshinov". Ancient stamps on title page and on additional leaves: "J. D. Kalisz" - Stamp of his father, the "Admor HaZaken" Rabbi Ya'akov David Kalisz of Amshinov.
Rebbe Ya'akov David Kalisz (1814-1878, Encyclopedia L'Chassidut, Vol. 2, pp. 262-263), the first Amshinov Rebbe, called by his Chassidim "HaAdmor HaZaken". Eldest son of Rebbe Yitzchak of Warka. In his youth, he was appointed Rabbi of Hrubieszów, afterward Rabbi of Przysucha and later Rabbi of Ger (Góra Kalwaria), before Rabbi Yitzchak Meir Alter, author of Chiddushei HaRim began his tenure as Rabbi of Ger. He then relocated to Amshinov wherein he established his court and the name of his residence eventually became the name of his dynasty. He was a leading rebbe in Poland and collaborated with the author of Chiddushei HaRim in communal activities.
His son, Rebbe Menachem Kalisz (1860-1918, Encyclopedia L'Chassidut, Vol 3, pp. 81-82), succeeded his father as Amshinov Rebbe and Rabbi after his father's death at the age of 18. During his tenure, his court grew and hundreds of Chassidim accepted his authority. He continued his father's public and private charitable activities. He served as rebbe for exactly 40 years, from Parshat VaYishlach to Parshat VaYishlach. Upon his death, the Imrei Emet of Ger said that "We have lost one of the last of the Knesset HaGedola". His sons and grandsons are the current Amshinov rebbes.
An ancient signature appears on the leaf preceding the title page: "Moshe of Wyszogród", apparently, the tsaddik Rabbi Moshe of Wyszogród, a close disciple of the "Holy Jew" of Przysucha [see enclosed material].
