Buyer's premium:

Archei HaKinuim, organized alphabetically, by Rabbi Yehiel Halperin of Minsk, author of the Seder HaDorot. 4, 85 leaves.

Many approbations from geonim of the period across Lithuania and Poland. Including the approbation of Rabbi Levi Yitzhak of Berdichev (with the mistaken addition of the name “Zvi”). Nevertheless, according to the chassidus researchers Rabbi Haim Liberman and Dr. Yitzhak Elfasi and others, it is truly that of Rabbi Levi Yitzhak of Berdichev.

New binding, stains, repairs in internal margins, some of which damage the text. Otherwise good overall condition.

Antique signatures on the title page, not entirely clear: “Belongs to the gaon Av Beit Din here…(?), Maharish.” Also: “Yosef Zvi Av Beit Din.”
