Special copy, printed on blue paper. Blue paper was introduced into Italian Hebrew printing early in the 16th century. Like vellum, it was used for preparing deluxe editions of books, which were printed in a limited number of copies for wealthy people.
Chumash and Targum on facing pages, apart from Yaakov's blessings in Vayechi and Moshe's blessings in VeZot HaBracha (mostly lacking in the present copy), where the text and Targum are set in parallel columns on the same page.
