A letter of recommendation by Agudat Israel to an orthodox girl coming on Aliya alone to Israel during World War II
A letter in German from Agudath Israel of Arad, Transylvania, during World War II - 25 January 1940.
Written on official stationery of "Agudat Israel Arada - Central Transylvania". Agudat Israel branch of Arad was very important and was the center for all of Transylvania as written on the page head.
The letter was written in German, and the content is a recommendation to froiling [Miss] Berger, who is travelling to the Holy Land but has no financial means.
The recommendation is directed to Mr. Biinar from Constanta, a port city on the Romanian Black Sea coast. Apparently that was where the girl had sailed away to Israel from, and therefore sought help from one of the governors of the city.
Condition: Very Good.
