Sefer “Chiddushei Halachot” by the Maharam Shiff – Brünn, 1788 – exemplar of the Gaon Rabbi Shalom Shachna, Av Beis Din of Copenhagen – Rare!
On the title page a signature: “Hashem gifted me this – the young Shalom Shachna son of the Gaavad”.
Rabbi Shalom Shachna served as the “Young Rav” in Copenhagen during the tenure of his father, Rabbi Avraham, as Av Beis Din of Copenhagen. After his father’s passing in 1828, the ‘Maskilim’ refused to accept his leadership, and he held a private “Minyan” in his home till his own passing in 1844.
As far as is known, an item with Rabbi Shalom Shachna’s signature has never been sold at auction to date.
