Letter of Passover wishes, with the handwritten signature of Rebbe Menachem Mendel Schneerson of Lubavitch. New York, Brooklyn, Nisan, 1972. The date of the birthday is printed at the top of the leaf: "11th Nisan 1972". Most of the letter contains the printed standard text of the response letter dispatched to those who sent the Rebbe blessings for his 70th birthday, with several typewritten additions: the name of the addressee of the letter, and an additional line at the end, acknowledging receipt of his letter on 13th Nisan. In the printed closing line, the Rebbe inserted a word in his own handwriting: "Respectfully and [with holiday wishes] Menachem Schneerson". "As the festival of Matzot approaches… I hereby wish to express my blessings for a happy and Kosher festival, for true freedom, freedom from material and spiritual worries - from anything which impedes worship of God with happiness and gladness of heart… With much appreciation for your (birthday) blessings. And it has already been said in the Holy Torah: And I (G-d, Source of blessings) will bless those who bless you, with the blessing of G-d Whose addition is greater than the principal".
