Opening: $300
Unsold
Two letters handwritten and signed by R. Eliyahu Meir Bloch. Telz (Telšiai), Tishrei 1931 and Cheshvan 1932.
Both letters discuss a teaching position in one of the Telz educational institutions, offered to R. Yaakov Landau (whose father-in-law, R. Yaakov Rabinowitz, was a respected member of the Telz community). In the letter from 1931, R. Eliyahu Meir reports about obstacles preventing him from promoting the appointment, while in the second letter (presumably written after the position was given to someone else), R. Eliyahu Meir writes courteously about the refusal, and his hopes that a suitable educational position will be available in the future.
Both letters bear R. Eliyahu Meir's full signature: "Eliyahu Meir son of R. Y.L.".
R. Eliyahu Meir Bloch (1895-1955), son of R. Yosef Leib Bloch. Dean of the Telz yeshiva in Lithuania, and later founder of the Telz yeshiva in Cleveland, Ohio.
Two letters, one on official stationery and one on official postcard. 29 and 15 cm. Letter on stationery in good-fair condition. Tears, wear and folding marks. Original envelope enclosed. Postcard in good condition. Stains.
