Beautiful early edition of Rabbeinu Bechayei's commentary on the Torah printed by Daniel Bomberg.


Rabbi Meir Bar Natan of Hildsom's signature appears on the back of the title page: "Presently teacher here in Schaffhausen, 1621." Additional signature: Ya'akov Fossweiler."

List of amulets for protection against fires with sacred Names and an illustration of a star of David. Handwritten notation on the bottom of the page: "I was a teacher in the village of Schaffhausen from 1592-1593, a year and a half ..."

Uncommon edition. A more well-known edition was also printed in Venice, in 1544, at a different press.
