The Satmar Rebbe's Mishneh Torah of the Rambam!. Warsaw, 1881.

A Singular Volume owned by one of the Greatest Hassidic Leaders!.

The Rambam's Mishneh Torah, part 1: Mad'a, Ahavah, Zemanim. Warsaw, Argelbrand-Goldman, 1881. Each section with separate title page (four in total).

The personal stamps of HaRav Yoel Teitelbaum (1887-1979) – founder of the Satmar Dynasty - appear in purple ink on the sefer's first title page. The earlier of the two stamps (used no fewer than five times!) reads: "Yoel Teitelbaum **** from Sighet".

The later stamp, prominently displayed in the center of the page, shows both HaRav Teitelbaum's name and his title "Av Bet Din of Carei [Romania]", a position he was awarded in 1925, before becoming the Admor of Satmar.

An additional stamp at the top of the page, in faded purple ink reads: "Moshe David Ashkenazi".

A partially-preserved, hand-written inscription along the lower left border ends with the words: Belonging to Yoel Teitelbaum...from Sighet

The name "Avraham Aba Ben [Yuda?]" is inscribed in pencil on p. 289 of Hilchot Lulav, perhaps as a Kvitl.
