== Presenting Moshiach Headquarters Publications to the Rebbe == On 24 Menachem Av 1991, during Sunday dollars distribution, Rabbi Butman, together with the manufacturers, presented a shirt printed with (in English): "Moshiach is on the way", "Here comes Moshiach" and "Let's be ready", reporting that they produced two thousand such shirts. The Rebbe's response (in Yiddish) was: "If you give one to me, there will remain 1,999... So leave one here". Rabbi Butman gave the Rebbe the shirt and the Rebbe gave the manufacturers an additional dollar saying: "For the shirt". During Sunday dollars distribution on 26 Marcheshvan 5752, during the International Kinus Hashluchim, Rabbi Butman passed with his son Rabbi Velvel and gave the Rebbe an advertisement about Moshiach being distributed worldwide. The illustration showed the Beis Hamikdash on clouds and stated: "Moshiach is on the way!" (in English) and "Here comes Moshiach!". The Rebbe responded (in Yiddish): "Great yasher koach" and gave him an additional dollar saying: "For the picture". After they passed, the Rebbe called them back and asked about the son: "Did he also participate in this?". Rabbi Butman said his son arranged it and the Rebbe gave the son an additional dollar saying: "There should be good tidings".
