EXTREMELY RARE! An 18th century edition of the Tractate Shabbat from the Babylonian Talmud. This is a copy of an earlier edition, printed in Frankfurt an der Oder in 1697. The book features commentary by Rashi and Samuel Eidels. The title page features handsome floral decorations, and an unidentified autograph. 350x195mm, 157 double pages. Marbled quarter-leather hardcover. Cover worn, bumped and peeling. Cover edges bumped. Spine torn at several places. Stamp on endpaper. Title page torn at edges. Pages browning, bumped at edges. Pages 155-157 torn at upper-left corner, with some damage to text. Despite the aforementioned damage, this old and handsome volume of the Talmud is in good condition for reading.
