Personal copy from the holy Gaon of Klausenburg with his signature on Shu"t 'Avnei Nezer'.
Shu"t 'Avnei Nezer' by the Holy Gaon Rabbi Avraham of Sochotchov (Sochaczew), from the great sages and righteous of the generation, author of sefarim 'Avnei Nezer' and 'Aglei Tal, 'son-in-law of the holy 'Saraf of Kotzk', on Orach Chaim Part 2, personal copy with hand signature and stamp of the Holy Gaon of Klausenburg author of 'Shefa Chaim' and 'Divrei Yatziv'.   

The Holy Gaon Rabbi Yekusiel Yehudah Halberstam of Sanz – Klausenburg (fondly known by the sefarim he authored, the 'Shefa Chaim or 'Divrei Yatziv') [January 10, 1905 – June 18, 1994] very famous and revered from the righteous of the generation. Founded the Sanz neighborhood in Netanya and the Laniado Hospital. Served simultaneously as Rosh Yeshiva, and as a leader for thousands. At the age of 21 he was appointed as Rav and Ab"d of 'Kehilat HaSefaradit' the Chareidi community in the Klausenburg neighborhood. He lived through the horrors of WWII and suffered severely, losing his righteous wife the daughter of the 'Atzei Chaim' of Sighet and his eleven children, including his firstborn 'Lipel'a, of whom his father predicted his immense greatness.
After the Holocaust, he became very famous for establishing institutions of Torah and Charity for the remaining refugees. Thousands of Jewish brethren took refuge and embraced in the shadows of his courtyard which he set up in Crown Heights and then in Kiryat Sanz in Netanya and Jerusalem, and later years in Union City.
Thousands attended his prayers and Tishen, and he was known as a Holy Righteous of the previous generation.
He initiated and established institutions to set up and spread Torah in amazing ways. “Mifal HaShas” and "Kollel Shas" in Israel and all over the world. ,

By the way, it is told that the Holy Avnei Nezer, was selected to be the son-in-law of the Holy Divrei Chaim of Sanz, the great grandfather of the Holy 'Divrei Yatziv' of Klausenburg, but the match did not work out as attributed to the words of the 'Divrei Chaim ' 'He is too sharp for me'….
