Machne Chaim, first edition, copy of Rav Pinchus Teitz. Vol.3 on Orach Chaim and Yoreh Deah, Munkatch 1878-9 Rav Pinchas Mordechai Teitz saw opportunities for the growth of Torah when he came to the U.S. in 1933. He built a modern Torah community in Elizabeth, NJ, where two mikvaos, three schools, and five shuls form a united JEC, Jewish Educational Center. In 1953 he wanted to enable those who had become disillusioned with socialism and Communism to re-connect with the Torah of their youth. He would bring the beit midrash into their homes through a weekly half-hour of study in Yiddish on their favorite radio station, WEVD. Although a full page could not be covered in a half hour, he called it Daf Hashavua. Not only did he reach his intended audience, but a government survey of foreign language programs found 200,000 listeners Fine condition - מחנה חיים, דפו”ר, עותק של ר' פנחס טייטץ , רב של עליזאבעטה, נוא דשערסי
