Slavuta Press, holy and exalted among Chassidim, lofty people, and holy Tzaddikim for generations. The beauty, the value of the Seforim printed there, and the quality of the print, combined with the lofty holiness of the owners of the press, headed by its founder, Rabbi Moshe Shapiro and his sons after him, where everything was done with immense awe of heaven, made the Seforim printed there priceless and highly sought after, and many Segulot have been attributed to them.
