Classic: Sefer Sha'alos U'Teshuvos R. Akiva Eiger, First Edition. Warsaw 1834.
Sefer Sha'alos U'Teshuvos R. Akiva, first edition. This edition was beautifully printed with nice, clear lettering and on thick, high-quality paper. In their introduction to this work, his children explain how their father was very particular regarding the print quality. According to his opinion, it is much easier to learn from a beautiful Sefer.
A watermark with the name "Eiger" is seen on some pages; apparently this paper was ordered specially for the Eiger family.
In very good-excellent condition. Lacking first title page (wrapper) found in some copies. Old tape (apparently 19th century) seen in inner margins of first 3 and last 2 leaves, not affecting text.
[1], 222 leaves.
Vinograd, Warsaw 102.
Stefansky Hebrew Classics, 310.
