Machzor, Passover Haggadah, Selichot and Tehillim - Slavita, 1826
Siddur for the whole year [prayers for weekdays, Shabbat and Rosh Chodesh, Passover Haggadah, prayers for Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur, Yotzrot and Selichot], Nusach Ashkenaz, with Yiddish translation [Tzena U'Rena letters]. [Slavita, c. 1826]. With Tehillim and Ma'amadot. Slavita, [1826]. [Shapira printing].
The siddur is missing the title page and several leaves at the beginning [the owner of the siddur came to Israel from Soviet Russia in the 1970s, and since it was forbidden to take books that were printed in Russia, the title page was torn out and the title page of the Mishna Brura [printed in Warsaw] was bound in its stead. We could not identify the edition (or it is not recorded in the Bibliography Institute); the printing date is estimated according to the adjoining Tehillim.
Separate title page for Tehillim. Without printer’s name.
Stamp in Cyrillic letters: “Л.А.М РАВИНЪ”.
Printed on bluish paper. Siddur: 4-110; 144, [4] leaves (the title page and leaves 2-3 are missing). Tehillim: 94 leaves (leaves 95-96, from the end of Ma’amadot section, are missing). 21 cm. Most leaves are in good condition, some in fair condition. Stains (some leaves have many stains). Leaves 10-37 [of the Siddur – Shacharit prayer] are in poor condition (coarse tears with missing parts and damage caused to text). Old leather binding, detached and damaged.
