Handwritten letter dated "Tuesday the 3rd of Elul 5698 [1838]" in which Rabbi Yosef ben Rabbi Wolf Klein writes to his "Liber Friend" [beloved friend] about several books that ought to be printed, among them "Kerem Chemed" and the Ibn Ezra commentary on the Torah. Then he copies [on two and a half pages] selected commentary of the Ibn Ezra on the Torah. He also copies a letter by Rabbi Shmuel David Luzzatto.
