B) The Megillah used by the Rebbe until 5729 (1969). It is also kept in a black cardboard case, as can be seen in the picture.
C) The Megillah that was given to the Rebbe by the Chassid, R’ Getzil Rubashkin, in the year 5729 (1969), in a silver case. This Megillah was used by the Rebbe in the ensuing years, as can be seen in the picture.
