Seder Minchah shel Shabbat. Photographed Prayer Book, Bukhara, 1940s - Seder Minchah shel Shabbat . Photographs. Bukhara, 1940s. [22] photo pages, 12x8.5 cm. Original binding. Includes the Shabbat afternoon prayers with 'karbanot'. Bukhara, like all other republics in the Soviet Union, suffered from a lack of prayer books. This was a creative solution: The pages of a prayer book were photographed, the film developed, and the photos were bound together as a book. Authentic memento from Jewish life in the Communist regime. Original, characteristic cardboard binding, with a vowelized Hebrew title: סדר מנחה של שבת. Fine-very fine condition.
