Machzor for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur according to the customs of Russia, Lithuania, Poland, and Moravia, with commentaries in Hebrew and Yiddish.
"
Printed in Yozefov, using the typefaces formerly used in Slavuta". The word "Slavuta" is emphasized in red ink, while the word "Yozefov" is obscured and barely visible. The reason for this is that after the Slavuta press was shut down by the government, the Shapira brothers temporarily moved their printing equipment to Yozefov, intending to return to Slavuta once the situation calmed. However, after several years, realizing that returning to Slavuta was impossible, they transferred the press to Zhitomir.
