With prominent endorsements:
The Gaon Rabbi Chaim HaKohen Rappaport, Av Beit Din Ostroh, author of Shu”t Mayim Chaim: “The great Rabbi and luminary, the famed pious one, son of holy men, Moreinu HaRav Rabbi Moshe of Slavita, decided to publish the books of Mishnayot in his splendid and wonderful press. It is well-known to all, that the Rabbi himself toiled over each detail, and nothing inaccurate was printed by him.”
The Dayanim of Ostroh: “Many yearn to study from books printed by the Rabbi”.
Rabbi Ephraim Moreh Tzedek of Sadiklov: “His press has gained a great reputation, the beautiful size of the paper and letters…and our leaders have agreed that any book already been printed by the Rabbi may not be printed by someone else without his permission…”
The volume of Nashim has a prominent stamp on the title page and leaf 2, of Rabbi Mordechai of Rachmastrivka’s Beit Midrash.
Rabbi Mordechai Twersky (Reb Motteleh, 1850-1920) was the second generation Admor of Rachmastrivk. He was the son of Rabbi Yohanan Twersky and son-in-law of Rabbi Chananya Lipa Shapira of Zhitomir, son of Rabbi Shmuel Abba of Slavita who was the son of Rabbi Moshe Shapira, printer of this book. Rabbi Mordechai was famed for his sage wisdom and sharp intellect. Many of his followers would consult him on their business decisions. As per his father’s instructions, each day following his prayers, Rabbi Mordechai would engage in silver, copper and wood engraving and crafting, as well as drawing. Some of his wood creations have been preserved. Following General Allenby’s conquest of Jerusalem, Rabbi Mordechai created and sent a most beautiful picture to the General.
Part of the title page is in red ink.
Slavita, 1815-1822
