Q&A of the Ribash, Constantinople 1546-1547. First edition.
Questions and answers (Shot) of Rabbi Yitzhak bar Sheshet (HaRibash). Constantinople, 1546-1547, first edition. Signatures of ownership, a number of handwritten glosses. The book was printed as pamphlets that were handed out to purchasers on shabbatot in the synagogue, as was the custom in Constantinople at the time. A halachic debate took place on the issue among the rabbis of Constantinople, who opposed this tradition. New binding, very good condition.
