Buyer's premium:

“Five Books of Torah with all of the haftaroth and the five megillot and translation of the megillot into Yiddish, called Tze’ina uRe’ina, with many special midrashim from the ancient commentators included for the parshiyot in Yiddish, collected by the Chassid Yaakov ben Yitzhak of Yanova, printed at the Judaic publisher David Sa’adiya Yeshaya Wax in Jozefof using the Slavita typesetting in 1850.” [1], 219 pages. Original leather binding, defective and worn, partially disconnected. Signs of use and many stains. Torn title page with missing text. Last page is torn and partially missing. Overall fair condition [relatively good for a book like this which was so heavily used and of which not many have survived].

This is an unknown bibliographic edition, not found in Winograd or at the National Library. The editions we found were published later.
