Chiddushei HaRashba on Tractate Chullin – Venice, 1523 – Printed by Daniel Bomberg – First Edition – Signature of Rabbi Shemaya Baruch, Brother of the Shiltei HaGiborim

Novellae on Tractate Chullin by the Rashba (R. Shlomo ibn Aderet). Venice: Daniel Bomberg, 1523. First edition.
Printed concurrently to three other books: Chiddushei Gittin and Chiddushei Berachot by the Rashba, and Chiddushei Bava Batra by the Ramban.
Ownership inscription on the title page, in Italian script: "This book is mine, Shemaya Baruch…". Another inscription above it: "…I, Meir Baruch". The first signatory is presumably R. Shemaya Baruch, brother of R. Yehoshua Boaz author of Shiltei HaGiborim. R. Shemaya Baruch was a prominent banker in Cherasco (Piedmont region). The second signatory is presumably his son Meir, who is mentioned in his testament (see: R. Avraham Yosef Chavatzelet, The Book Shiltei HaGiborim – Who Authored It? Moriah, year 18, issue 7-8, Tammuz 1992, p. 99; Boksenboim, Letters of Jewish Teachers [Hebrew], p. 346).
Signature in Sephardic script: "Purchased from R. David Guez, I, Refael Burgel" [R. David Guez was a Torah scholar in Tunis in the late 18th century]; "Eliezer Valobra" (signature deleted and damaged).


133, [1] leaves. 26 cm. Good-fair condition. Stains, including minor dampstains. Worming, affecting text (some leaves with extensive worming to inner margins), repaired in part with paper. New leather binding.
