Likutei Amarim Tanya – Warsaw, after 1856 – False Place of Publication
Likutei Amarim – Tanya, by Rebbe Shneur Zalman of Liadi. [Warsaw: after 1856]. The present edition is based on the 1856 Lviv edition [without the approbations. The present edition was revised under the strain of censorship, containing more omissions than the 1856 Lviv edition].
False Place of Publication
In the present edition, the place of publication is indicated on title page margins as "Wien" [Vienna]. According to Bibliographer R. Chaim Lieberman, books printed in Warsaw often bore false places of publication, such as Königsberg, Czernowitz, Pressburg, Wien, Lvov, and others; these books' design is easily discernable [e.g. ornaments printed in the present Tanya edition are very similar to those found in the 1866 Warsaw edition of "Avodath HaLevi", printed by F. Baumriter and I. Rotblat. Mondshine, Sefer HaTanya, Bibliography, p. 86, footnote 1].
[1], 2-24, 19-21, 28-44. Approx. 21 cm. Good condition. Stains and minor wear. Marginal tears to title page, without damage to text or ornaments. Minor worming to final leaves. New binding (imprint on spine: "Vienna"; Hebrew).
