Machzor (Sephard) for Rosh HaShanah, Yom Kippur and the Shalosh Regalim. Zhitomir- Unknown
Machzor - Rosh HaShanah, Yom Kippur and the three pilgrimage festivals. Printed by the partners, grandsons of the rabbi of Slavuta, Zhitomir, 1855. Lacking the end. Bibliographically unknown machzor.
Machzor with the Sephard text, for the high holidays and the festivals in one volume. With Yotzrot and meggilahs, and with a picture of the Zodiac in the prayers for rain and for dew.
It is well-known that sefarim printed in Zhitomir are considered by Chassidic communities to have special sanctity. There were those who were particular to have chumashim from the Zhitomir press in their homes as protection from fire and other misfortunes. Chassidic leaders would pray specifically from a Zhitomir siddur as a segulah for their prayers to be well-received.
Leaves: [1] 1-203 leaf, 21 cm. Lacking the end, and possibly also the first title page.
Fine condition. Minimal aging stains and adhesions in the first leaves.
