Bibliographic discovery! Avkat Rochel by Rabbeinu Machir—Lemberg 1792.

The auction will start in __ days and __ hours

Start price: $130

Buyer's premium:

Work by Rabbeinu Machir ben Yitzhak, Rashi’s rabbi, with principles of faith. “It is more precious than pearls and no fortune equals it and from rumors we have heard from Maggidei Emet that it was written by the Rabbi of Rashi.” This bibliographic discovery is not located at the National Library and is not catalogued in Winograd—the National Library has an Avkat Rochel from Lviv in the same year but a different printer.


30 leaves (leaf 25 is present but out of place, it was accidentally bound right before the last leaf). 14cm, fair condition, new binding, tears with missing text on a number of pages, some lightly repaired.
