Manuscript of Sefer Mevo She’arim by Rabbi Chaim Vital. Early Ashkenazi writing [early 18th century]. Ornamented title page.
Order of book similar to first edition printed in Kyritz in 1783, however contains many variations in style, granting it more similarity to the 1806 Thessaloniki edition which was based on a different manuscript. This manuscript was, without doubt, written decades before the abovementioned two printings, and contains many variations which require close examination of content.
97 leaves, 30 cm. Quality paper, good condition, wear on margins of paper. New elegant leather binding.
