Letter of Blessings by the Holy Rav Rabbi Avraham Elimelech of Karlin - with an Addition of Three Lines Handwritten by Him

Rare letter of blessings for good health and naches from one's offspring. Rabbi Avraham Elimelech of Karlin with an addition of three lines of blessings handwritten by him. Extremely rare. 


Special and important letter by the holy Rav Rabbi Avraham Elimelech of Karlin to the famed Chassid Rabbi Aharon Haltovsky and about the famed Karlin Chassid Rabbi Meir the son of Batya Levin. 

With blessings for good health: שיתברך מפי עליון בראשית בבריאה נכונה ושלימה ורפו"ש לכל רמ"ח אבריו ושס"ה גידיו להצלחה רבה ולנחת מכל יוצאי חלציו : לקבל רוב נחת מכל יוצ"ח בגדולין של נחת ובנקל ע"פ דרך תוה"ק והחסידות

ולכתיבה וחתימה טובה בספרן של צדיקים לאלתר לחיים בשנה טובה ומאושרה. 

The Rav used to add a word or two handwritten by him to his letters; to this letter, however, he added almost 3 complete lines taking interest in "our dear friend the Gaon Rav Rabbi Chaim Mendel Shlita" and blessing him: 'ה' יוסיף עליו את הברכה'

He is referring to the famed Gaon Rabbi Chaim Mendel Kostromsky, one of the leaders and Rosh Yeshiva in Karlin and Jerusalem.  


At the end of the rare and lengthy blessing, the full handwritten signature of the Rav.
