Buyer's premium:

Chovat HaTalmidim the foundational and groundbreaking work by the Admor Baal HaMachshava, Rabbi Kalonymus Kalmish Shapira of Piacenza. 2nd edition. 85 leaves.Two title pages.

This edition was printed at the height of the Shoah, before the inhabitants of the Land of Israel understood its magnitude, which is why the title page has the author’s name with shlita, even though by Cheshvan of late 1943 he had already perished.

Original cover, good condition.
