תיאור הספר

EXTREMELY RARE single volume containing all 1894 issues of the daily Hebrew newspaper "Ha-Tsefira". This influential publication, published in Warsaw and read throughout the Jewish world, featured news in matters of international politics, global economy, science and religion, literature and so forth. The issues were sent by mail, and still feature contemporary Austrian-Hungarian stamps. The publication was edited and most of it written by Nachum Sokolov, and is written in the elevated Hebrew prose typical of that era. 400x275mm. 1262 pages. Bound in black cloth Hardcover. Most page edges slightly torn (no damage to text). Many pages taped and nicely restored - NO damage to text. First and last text pages partly torn and detached from binding; these pages are sold along with the volume, but a photocopied version of them is bound within it. Pages yellowing/browning. [SUMMARY]: In spite of the wear it has sustained, this rare collection of Jewish newspapers is in good reading condition.
