Seder Hatephilah al Derech Hasod [prayers through the year]

According to the mystical elements of Chaim Vital and the meditations of Isaac Luria. ff.(7),144,143-192,(2). Some wear through heavy use, few minor worm-holes neatly repaired. 20th century linen boards. Sm. 4to Vinograd, Zolkiew 415 (erroneously noting only one errata leaf)

Zolkiew: n.p. 1781

Est: $3,000 - $4,000

PRICE REALIZED $3,000

Very curiously bound, with upper margin as spine (comparable to a journalist’s note-book). Lower cover with Hebrew owner’s inscription: Joseph Novak, Krakow Ghetto. Possibly have been bound as such to aid in keeping the book concealed in time of duress?
