Autograph letter signed by Rabbi Aharon Leib Shteinman, from his youth. Montreux (Switzerland), 1938. Long interesting letter. He starts with explaining his deliberations and his decision to stay in Montreux. He requests that various books be sent to him (the notebooks of Torah novellae of Rabbi Chaim; Oneg Yom Tov, Jubilee Book of Rabbi Shimon HaCohen Shkop, Sefer HaBrit, Tana D'Vei Eliyahu, Shita Mekubetzet, Bible, etc.), as well as tzitzit strings and ink for correcting a Torah scroll. Further in the letter, which was apparently intended for his friends who remained in Brisk, he asks if "the Brisker Rav is still studying Kodshim" and he requests that his regards be sent to Rabbi Simcha Zelig Riger [posek in Brisk, relative of the Steinman family] and to his family. He tells about his travel plans from Brisk to Switzerland without missing hearing the Torah reading during his journey. Rabbi Aharon Yehuda Leib Shteinman was born in Brisk, Lithuania and studied in yeshivot in his native country. In fear of enlistment to the Polish army, he fled to Switzerland in the summer of 1938 with his friend Moshe Soloveitchik to study in the Montreux Yeshiva. this journey right before World War II turned out to be the miracle of the survival of these two Torah giants who later impacted the whole generation in building the Torah world of our days - Rabbi Moshe Soloveitchik in the city of Zurich from which he led the Torah world in Europe and Rabbi Aharon Shteinman in the city of Bnei Brak. 2 pages, 27.5 cm. Good condition, foxing and wear.
