Rare broadside announcing the laying of the foundation stone of the first Beis Midrash of the Slonim Chassidim in Jerusalem, with the participation of Maran the holy Rav the Beis Avraham who was then visiting the country. 1933.
The broadside invites the public to celebrate the event on the 13rd of Adar at the yard of the famed Chassid Rabbi Yosef Weinberg.
The visit of the holy Rav the Beis Avraham was an awe-inspiring visit for the many Chassidim of Tiberius and the few who started gathering in Jerusalem.
