summary

A Hagadah fragment with Prague style typography. Yudlov records this apparent edition complete with copper-plate illustrations. This copy has the captions for the traditional Venice-style copper plate Hagadah illustrations, but with blank spaces where the plates would have been placed. This. therefore, would seem to be a mutant copy, with the plates erroneously or otherwise omitted

ff. (11, of 18), lacking title, ff.2-6 & 18. Browned, stained in places, neat marginal repairs. Modern maroon morocco-backed marbled boards. Folio
