Simchat HaRegel. Pedigree Copy Received Directly from the Author - the Chid"a. Including a Proofing Leaf with the Author's? Handwritten Corrections
Simchat HaRegel - Part II, commentary on Megillat Ruth by the Chid"a - Rabbi Chaim Yosef David Azoulay. Livorno, 1782. Pedigree copy received directly from the author. Given to the gaon Rabbi Ya'akov Nunes-Vais, rabbi of Livorno. Includes a proofing leaf from the book, with handwritten glosses - by the author?
Handwritten inscription in the title page (slightly cropped at the margins) 'Gifted to me by the rabbi, Chid"a, may Hashem grant him length of days ... Ya'akov Nunes-Vais, S"T'
Leaf bound at the end of the book - page 43b, with handwritten corrections of several printing errors, characteristic of authors. These glosses may have been handwritten by the author of the book - the Chid"a himself!
This is an exciting book, held in the very hands of the light of the world, Rabbeinu Chaim Yosef David Azoulay - the Chid"a, given as a gift to the rabbi of the city where he was staying during one of his historic journeys.
64 leaves. Bound at the end of the book are two additional leaves: The aforementioned proofing leaf, as well as leaf 102 from Part I (not included).
Fine-very fine condition. The inscription on the title page is cropped and several letters are damaged. Aging stains. The proofing leaf is in moderate-fine condition, with later additions (the additions are made of pasted-on scraps of printed leaves!). Beautiful binding.
