Maseches Zevachim, printed by Daniel Bomberg, with the Rashi and Tosfos commentaries.
Individual volume of the first complete edition of the Talmud. This edition determined the layout of the page for nearly every subsequent edition of the Talmud. Additionally, this particular edition of the Talmud is virtually free of the encroachments of the censor. As is well-known Daniel Bomberg spared no effort in printing an accurate and magnificent set of the Talmud. The result was the famed “Bomberg Shas” which has been a treasured collector’s item for generations.
Lacking title page, provided in facsimile.
Vinograd Venice 137. Daniel Bomberg press. 121 pages. 38 cm. Very fine condition. Some staining. Antique half leather binding.
Opening bid $5000
