Volume of a manuscript, Sefer Ginzei Yosef handwritten by the author, the Gaon Rabbi Yosef Hacohen Schwartz, the Rav of the Machzikei Torah community of Grosswardein – Grosswardein, 1930
This volume contains copying of a halachic correspondence with the leading rabbis of his generation including his Gaon father Rabbi Naftali, Av Beis Din of Mad, author of Beit Naftali, his Gaon father-in-law Rabbi Eliezer Deutsch Av Beis Din of Bonyhad, author of Tevu’ot Hasadeh, and with his leading Rav the Gaon Rabbi Yaakov Tenenbaum, author of Naharei Afarsemon.
