Author's Autograph: Beautiful Compilation on the Halachahs of Etrog during Shemittah, Handwritten by the Tzitz Eliezer. Jerusalem, 1959 - Especially beautiful handwritten kuntress  spanning twelve large leaves in clear and orderly script, handwritten by the  av beit din  of Jerusalem, the renowned gaon Rabbi Eliezer Yehudah Waldenberg, author of Tzitz Eliezer . Jerusalem, 1959. Lengthy discussion dealing with the halachahs of an etrog on Sukkot during the Shemittah year, with an in-depth look at the Chazon Ish's approach. It also mentions the gedolei hador such as the gaon of Tshebin, his brother - the Chazon Nachum, and others. Although the responsum is addressed to his friend, the gaon Rabbi Yisrael Weltz, av beit din  of Budapest, Rabbi Waldenberg writes it as a significant halachic compilation spanning twelve large leaves [approximately 3500 words], and it stands as a work in its own right. The kuntress was written as inyana d'yoma in Elul 1959, the eve of Rosh HaShanah of the Shemittah year 1959-1960. At the top of the letter, Rabbi Waldenberg pens another responsum in aggadeta - with respect to David HaMelech's passing away on Shabbat. The responsum about the Shemittah etrog was printed with some differences in his work Tzitz Eliezer  [Part VI, siman  39], and the responsum about King David was printed [ibid] in responsum 37. Refer to the Hebrew catalog text for a brief biography of the gaon Rabbi Eliezer Yehudah Waldenberg . [12] large leaves, 33x21 cm. Entirely in his hand. The first leaf bears the Tzitz Eliezer's letterhead and the last leaf bears his full signature. Fine condition. Ink smudges.
