Masechet Rosh Hashana - Small Format. Slavita, [1821]. Rabbi Moshe Shapira Press.

Masechet Rosh Hashana of the Bavli Talmud, a small format printed by Rabbi Moshe Shapira Av Beit Din of Slavita, the son of Rabbi Pinchas of Koretz. 


Only few tractates were printed in a small format - to enable them to be studied "on the road" - and not the entire Shas. 


Every page of the large edition of the Shas was printed here on two pages. Chidushei Maharsha were printed here on the sheet of the Gemore. 


Includes: Rashi's commentary and Tosfot, Piskei HaRosh, Piskei Tosfot, the Rambam's commentary on the Mishnayot and Hagahot Rabbi Yeshaya Pick Berlin. "Everything as printed here in our community in the large Shasin". 


[1821]. The Press of Rabbi Moshe Shapira. 

[69], 74-88 leaves. 22 cm. Good condition. Some of the title page with red lettering. Greenish/bluish paper. Some tears along the edges of the first two leaves (taping to the edge of the second leaf) and the four last leaves. Aging stains. Very few moth perforations. New binding.
