The Savran / Benderi Chassidic dynasty stemmed from the Wertheim family. This volume contains seven stamps of the Chassidic leader R. Yitzchak b. R. Shimon Shlomo (Wertheim) of Bender (d. 1911). His work Be’eroth HaMayim was published by his relative the Stoliner Rebbe in 1998 (see Y. Alfasi, Traklinei HaChassiduth p. 297-98).
