Fascinating Letter Handwritten and Signed by the Admor Rabbi Yeshayahu Asher Yolles of Sambor - Stryi, 1930 - ועם כ”ק רבינו אדמו”ר שליט”א דיברתי ממנו - important letter by the Admor Rabbi Yeshayahu Asher Yolles of Stryi-Sambor - addressed to the famed Chassid Rabbi Avraham Avish Berman - with important references to their Rav the Admor Rabbi Menachem Nachum Friedman of Boyan-Chernovich - Stryi, 1930.  Extremely rare letter with several important Chassidic references. Rabbeinu sent his letter to the Chassid Rabbi Avraham Avish Berman, a leading Ruzhin Chassid in Eretz Yisrael. At the beginning of his letter, Rabbeinu apologizes for the delay in sending his letter due to the Brit MIlah of his youngest son: ”בהיותי טרוד בטרדה דמצוה של בר”מ (ברית מילה) מבני הצעיר... ויקרא שמו על שם המגיד הגדול זכי”ע כפקודת אדמו”ר הק' שליט”א בהיותו אז בסקאלע...” referring to the the Admor Rabbi Menachem Nachum Friedman, the second Admor of Boyan who was staying in Skole. Later, Rabbeinu quotes a mysterious sentence by his Rav: ”ועם כ”ק רבינו אדמו”ר שליט”א דברתי ממנו ומההצעה שלו, והשיב לי בבדיחותא, כי הרב ממונקאטש כבר תיקן ארץ ישראל על עשר שנים, וד”ל. והפירוש לא ידענא ועוד חזון למועד...”. Then, Rabbeinu describes his stay with the Rav on Yamim Noraim: ”ומה שראינו ושמענו בכל הימים הנוראים והימים הטובים מעת בוא אדמו”ר שליט”א לגבולינו עד שובו הביתה, אי אפשר לחרוט בעט עלי לוח, כי ממש שאבנו חיות דקדושה בכל רגע ורגע...”.
