Sefer Chessed Le-Avraham, on Kabbalah issues, by Rabbi Avraham Azulay of Hebron. Slavita, 1794. Of the first books that were printed by Rabbi Moshe Shapira.
Approbation by Rabbi Ya'akov Shimshon of Shpitovka.
[According to this approbation in The Bibliography Institute CD record 0108497 printing is referred to Rabbi Pinchas of Koritz father of Rabbi Moshe Shapira, but this seems impossible since Rabbi Pinchas of Koritz died in 1790, while on the title page the date reads 1784. This approbation might have been written while Rabbi Pinchas of Koritz was still alive and the books were printed by his son Rabbi Moshe after his death].
An additional approbation by Rabbi Aryeh Leib Ben Shalom Ha-Levy of Zbaraz, Av-Beit-Din of Voltchisak, "to the printers of Slavita". [It is worthwhile noting that Rabbi Yossef Segal Av-Beit-Din of Yassi, is mentioned on title of Or Hachaim printed in Slavita in those days].
Signatures and ownership handwritten inscriptions in ancient handwriting: "Nachum… Avraham Menachem Mendel".
[6] 87, 1-11,11-34,[1] leaf. 20cm. Greenish-grey paper, wide margins. Good-fair condition. Stains and slight damages. Old cardboard and leather binding, damaged.

Set of Machzorim, with commentaries and Hebrew-Deitsch commentary. Yozefov, 1844.
"Printed in Yozefov in a print that was originally in Slavita, supervised by Hanina Lipa Shapira grandson of the Rabbi of Slavita". "Slavita" is printed in red bold letters.
This printing in Yozefov, is the start of reestablishing the printing press by the Rabbi of Slavita's family, instead of the Slavita printing press closed by a government order in 1836. During the short period (1842-1844) only a few books were printed in Yozefov, afterwards the printers moved to Zhitomir, where they opened their printing house that existed during the years 1847-1867.
Part I, for Rosh Ha-Shanah and Yom Kippur : [2] 164 leaves (332 pages), 25cm. Fair condition, moth-holes. New binding.
Part II: for Shalosh Regalim: 152 leaves (304 pages). 27cm. Good-fair condition, wear to corners, few moth damages. Original leather binding, worn, pasted.
The year in Hebrew letters is "1848" but this is a mistake since in digits appears the year 1844.
Rare.
