Typed Letter Signed, in Hebrew, to R. Shlomo Steinberg and his wife, acknowledgment of donation to the Yeshivah, and wishes for a speedy recovery

R. Eliezer Judah Finkel (1879-1965) was the son of R. Nathan Tzvi Finkel, the founder of the Slabodka Yeshiva ("Der Alter fun Slabodka"), and son-in-law of R. Elijah Baruch Kamai, head of the Mir Yeshivah, whose position he inherited. During the interbellum period, Mir attracted thousands of students, from across Europe and even America. After World War Two, R. Finkel re-established his Yeshivah in Jerusalem. Today, it boasts a student body of 5,000 - the largest yeshivah in the world. See EJ, Vol. VI, cols. 1290-1. R. Shlomo Steinberg of South Africa is addressed as the "Gabbai Rashi di-Yeshivath Mir ha-Kedosha" (Chief Fundraiser of the Mirrer Yeshiva)
