The Gartel (cloth belt) worn by the Rebbe of Tosh during his prayers.
Enclosed is a signed conformation by the rabbi who had received the Gartel from the Rebbe.
The Rebbe of Tosh, Rabbi Meshulam Feish Segal Lowy (1922-2015), the son of the Rebbe Rabbi Mordechai, the grandson of Rabbi Meshulam Feish Lowy of Tosh (the first). Most of his family, including his father, perished in the Holocaust. In 1951, he moved from Hungary to Montreal, Canada and in 1963 founded the 'Beit Ha'Levi' campus of the Tosh Hassidism. He was known for his long prayers and many came to spend the Sabbath with him.
His Divrei Torah were printed in his 'Avodat Avodah' series of books.
Condition: Good. Typical wear.
