Ein Avraham, Konigsberg, 1848 - Rare Signatures - Ein Avraham, Konigsberg, 1848  Aggadat Bavli - Ein Ya'akov, with the Ein Avraham commentary, by R. Avraham Schick and an introduction containing a method for studying Talmudic aggadot.  Konigsberg, [1848, second edition]. Approbation of R. Yisrael Lifshitz, author of the Tiferet Yisrael, R. Ya'akov Zvi Mecklenburg, author of HaKetav V'Hakabbalah and R. Aryeh Leib Shapira, Rabbi of Kalvarija [the only printed approbation of R. Aryeh Leib Shapira, Rabbi of Kovno]. In the second edition with the approbations, the printing date and dates of the approbations were falsified to 1827-1828, apparently to mislead the Russian-Polish authorities, following the decree prohibiting printing Jewish books which existed in those years, beginning in 1837
