summary

RARE HAGADAH FROM NICE, FRANCE. ISSUED SHORTLY PRIOR TO THE LIBERATION OF EUROPE. Clearly, only a very limited number of copies of this Hagadah were printed, and due to both the flimsy nature in which it was published and the circumstances of the time it is exceedingly scarce
ff. (1), 29. Browned and slightly brittle, previous owner's signature on title, minor stain on front cover. Original illustrated stiff wrappers. 8vo
