Complete set, ten volumes containing the famous work Sdei Chemed by the Gaon Rabbi Chaim Chezekaya Medini of Hebron, which is an encyclopedia-like work for Klale HaShas, alphabetically ordered. Including the indices and appendices.

On the facing page is the notation: "באמצע הכנת כרך זה לדפוס נסתלק כבוד קדושת מו"ח… יוסף יצחק… אדמו"ר מליובאוויטש גאון ישראל ונשיאו" (In the middle of the preparation of this volume his Holiness passed away… Yosef Yitzhak…the Admor of Lubavitch Gaon Yisrael).
