Letter of recommendation from Rabbi Yonatan Steif, Rabbi of Budapest for Rabbi Chananya Yom Tov Lipa Schwartz.
Letter of recommendation from 1942 from the Tzaddik Gaon Rabbi Yehonatan Steif, Rabbi of Budapest, for Rabbi Chananya Yom Tov Lipa Schwartz.

Attached is an exciting letter from Rabbi Lipman, in which he expands on his pedigree (Yichuse) as the son of Rabbi Yitzchak Meir Schwartz of Dragimersht  the son of the Gaon Rabbi Naftali Schwartz of Mad, the son of the "Kol Aryeh". Also that he was in the Hungarian army and his condition was very dire and asking for a position in the community.

A remarkable, extraordinary letter and content.
