Opening: $300
Unsold
Mo'adei Hashem Part 2, Mikra'ei Kodesh Hillulim, according to the Sefardi custom. Jerusalem, [1843]. Rabbi Yisrael Beck Printing.
Two leaves including a title page, Seder B'dikat Chametz, Seder Korban Pesach and the beginning of Arvit for the three festivals. An early edition, not completed, of the machzor printed in Jerusalem 1843-1844. Apparently, only these two leaves were printed. In the complete edition, the prayers for Pesach are found in Part 1 (printed in 1844) and not in Part 2 (printed in 1843).
Rare. Regarding the remnant of this edition see Bibliography Institute CD, Listing 0310800, and see S. HaLevi (no. 19) who writes that she knows of only three copies of these two leaves, that are all found in a book binding and are moth-eaten in an identical manner. This is another copy which also seems to have been removed from a geniza of bindings.
[4] Pages. 20 cm. Fair-poor condition. Professional damage restoration.
