summary

Rare. Not in JNUL. Not seen by Yaari who lists it based upon Duker. Yudlov lists it based upon a copy in a private collection in London. The final leaf contains the following interesting comment: “On these nights it is customary to allow even the meanest Hebrew servant to sit at table…as we were all equally alike in bondage.”

pp. 70, (1). Stained. Contemporary marbled boards, rubbed. 8vo.
