Copy given as a gift by Rabbi Shlomo Ganzfried, author of the Kitzur Shulchan Aruch to his son-in-law. -  4 volumes of the Chumash “Totza’ot Chaim”—first edition, Amsterdam 1764-66. Chumashim given as a gift by Rabbi Shlomo Ganzfried to his son-in-law Rabbi Shlomo Zalman Brody , who served as a dayan in Ungvar. The section on Bereishit has a twice-written, handwritten note by Rabbi Shlomo Zalman Brody: “from Kvod Adoni my father-in-law, Shlomo Zalman Brody” , with his stamps from when he resided in Ungvar. This note, therefore, testifies that this set was received by the writer from Rabbi Shlomo Ganzfried, author of the Kitzur Shulchan Aruch, his father-in-law. Additional stamps from Rav Brody’s son in one of the other volumes. A short handwritten correction (perhaps by Rav Ganzfried, it can’t be discerned). Additional notes at the top of title pages, from the period of printing: “I bought for the kvod of the Boreh, Yaakov Segal…”. An erased note of ownership: “the young and small Shmuel Meir ben Menachem…residing here..by…the Rav Maggid …” (it is perhaps referring to a student of the Ktav Sofer, Rabbi Shmuel Meir Katz, author of the Shem MiShmuel—son of the gaon Rabbi Menachem Katz Prostitz-Zelem, a student of the Chatam Sofer), an additional note after it that it belongs to the famous rabbi Moshe Katz (perhaps the second son of Rabbi Meanchem Prostitz).
