Talmud Bavli, Zhitomir, 1858-1864. 11 Volumes.
Talmud Bavli with commentaries. Zhitomir, 1858-1864, at the press of the grandsons of the rabbi of Slavuta, Rabbi Chanina Lipa and Rabbi Yehoshua Heschel Shapira. 11 volumes. Important and sought-after edition of Sha"s (see below).
Tractates: Shabbat, Eruvin, Pesachim, Rosh HaShanah Yoma Sukkah, Beitzah Moed Kattan Megillah Ta'anit, Ketuvot, Bava Kamma, Bava Batra, Shevuot Avodah Zarah, Sanhedrin, Makkot Horiyot Eduyot Avot Masechtot Ketanot.
Books printed at the presses in Slavuta and Zhitomir are known in Chassidic communities to have special sanctity. Even the printing tools and letters were immersed in a mikveh before the beginning of the printing process. It is well-known that possession of a book from these presses is a segulah for protecting one's home and for success.
Size: 37-38 cm (the Beitzah-Ta'anit volume is smaller). Some of the volumes have two title pages at the beginning, some of which are in red. High quality paper and beautiful, wide margins. Glosses.
