WACHSTEIN, BERNHARD. Minchath Shelomoh-Katalog der Salo Cohn’schen Schenkungen. Two volumes bound in one

The last major catalogue of an important collection issued in the pre-war period. It consists of 2 parts: the former libraries of Solomon Joachim Halberstam (one of the founders of the Mekitze Nirdamim Society) and Nachum Be’er Friedmann of Sadigore. These collections were housed as part of the Vienese Israelitische Kultusgemeinde Bibliothek- of which Wachstein was director. Under his leadership the library grew to become one of the richest Judaica collections throughout Europe. It was destroyed following the Nazi Anschluss in 1938.
