Printer: Dfus Netanel David Zisberg and Mordechai Kalinberg

This specific Haggadah has a couple of very interesting ownership seals.

1.- Rabbi Moshe Neislas (משה ניישלאס) / Neuschloss lost his first wife and two sons when they were deported to Auschwitz.  He was taken to forced labor camps in Austria and Slovaki apparently and survived the war.  Aftr the war he went back to his native Dunajská Streda and reopened a Yeshiva for surviving youth.  Rabbi Greenbaum brought him to the United States in 1948, but he refused to go unless tickets were provided for all of his 100 students.  He died in 1997 after being a loved and respected figure wherever he went, witnessed by his burial that attracted more than 15,000 people from all over the place.
