RARE CHIERI IMPRINT. NOT IN JNUL, BODLEIAN OR JTSL. This copy with an autograph poem by the Author. Joseph Conzio established a small Hebrew press in Chieri, a Piedmontese town in Northern Italy, where he printed some one dozen items between 1626 and 1632, mostly all, his own compositions. By the early 20th century the Jewish Community in Chieri had ceased to exist. See EJ, V col. 422
