Sefer Ha-Brit "most of his teachings are based on the holy writings of the Ari z"l in his book Etz Ha-Chaim". Vol.2. [Vienna, c.1797-1800]. First [book] printed at the new printing press of Anton Schmidt in the city of Vienna.
This edition was printed in a similar way to the first volume which was printed in Brֳ¼n in 1801 and seems to be a continuation of it, but there are many additions and corrections which the author printed in "Sefer Ha-Brit HaShalem" which was printed in Zolkow in 1807.
In 1796, after printer Rossman of Brֳ¼n passed away, the press and all of its contents moved to Anton Schmidt in Vienna. It seems that Schmidt had inherited from Rossman all of the book's first volume exemplars and decided to print the second volume just like the first, making no mention of the place and year of print, so both volumes would look like they belong to one set.

Tractate Kiddushin of the Babylonian Talmud. Published by the Rabbis Union Committee in the American region in Germany with the assistance of Va'ad HaHatzala. Munich St. Etilin, 1946. Illustrated title page with photographs from the extermination camps "labor shed in which we secretly slept, studied and prayed".
In the publisher's introduction he mentions the "taking of the book from the people of the Book" by the evil people who annihilated and burnt European Jewry and made an effort not to leave any Hebrew book "all books were taken for paper processing or other despicable usesג€¦ and therefore after the liberation there was a great thirst for books, Yeshivot were established, however, there were no books to study fromג€¦ this spurred us to print some tractatesג€¦ we possess only Tractate Kiddushin and Nedarim in one volume in nearly new condition and we decided to photocopy and print these tractates and distribute them among the refugees in Germanyג€¦" [At a later stage, the entire Shas was printed in Munich in a uniform edition consisting of 19 volumes, with an illustrated title page with different illustrations than this first copy].
