Letter from Rabbi Moshe Feinstein – Report on the State of the Mikveh in His Neighborhood – New York, 1949
Printed postcard, completed by hand and signed by R. Moshe Feinstein. New York, 1949.
Feedback postcard of the Union of Orthodox Rabbis, who requested that the various rabbis answer the following two questions: what is the state of the mikveh in their community, and is there a need to build a mikveh in their city. This postcard was filled-in and signed by R. Moshe Feinstein, who wrote: "In my area there is a kosher, beautiful mikveh", noting the address of the mikveh.
R. Moshe Feinstein (1895-1986), foremost halachic authority in the United States, leader of Orthodox Jewry and chairman of the Moetzet Gedolei HaTorah. He served as dean of the Tiferet Yerushalayim yeshiva in New York. He authored: Responsa Igrot Moshe, Dibrot Moshe – Talmudic novellae and Dorash Moshe – novellae on the Torah.
Upon arriving in the United States from Russia in 1937, R. Moshe gained renown as a leading Torah scholar and halachic authority, and the elder rabbis there accepted his authority and halachic rulings. He was later appointed president of the Union of Orthodox Rabbis – the UOR.
Postcard. Approx. 14X8.5 cm. Very good condition.
