Ezrat HaSofer, "Tikun Sofrim Vavei Ha'Amudim" [Five Books of the Torah, with Haftarot]. With Or Torah by Rabbi Menachem Di Lunzano, "Appropriate for study and for copying a Sefer Torah". Amsterdam, [1767-1769?]. Illustrated half-title page in all volumes, with the Hebrew year 5529 [1768-1769]. The rest of the title pages are dated 5527 [1766-1767].

Machzor, Aram Tzova (Aleppo) rite. Part 2. Venice, [1527]. Printed by Daniel Bomberg. Only edition. Rare edition printed in Venice for the Aleppo (Halab) Syrian Jewish community. This machzor preserves a very early version of the text which has been forgotten with time and has been exchanged for the version used by the Sephardim (following the Spanish expulsion, at the time Jews settled in the East). This version preserves ancient Eretz Yisraeli rites and contains many unique customs and piyyutim, including customs unknown from any other source. Incomplete copy containing 351 of 391 leaves (and a number of leaves enclosed – additional copies of leaves bound in the machzor). These leaves contain Hasha'anot for Succot and for Hoshanah Rabba, prayers for Shemini Atzeret and for Simchat Torah, Tikun Chanuka, declaration of fast-days, Shacharit, Selichot for the Asara B'Tevet, Tikun Purim, Tzom (Ta'anit) Esther, Purim, Tikun Pesach, Lel Pesach, Shacharit for Pesach, Pesach songs, Tractate Avot, the Festival of Shavu'ot, Azharot of R. Shlomo Ibn Gvirol for the Festival of Shavu'ot, Tikun Shiva Asar B'Tamuz, Tikun Shabbatot, for Shabbat Eichah, Erev Tisha B'Av, Tisha B'Av, Seder Me'ah Berachot. On leaf 378 is a text for declaring the Tisha B'Av fast on the Shabbat preceding the fast-day, with a decorative frame. On the verso is a notice by the printers that they decided to add the weekday prayers to Part 2 as well to make it easier for those who buy the machzor. On leaf 539 is a woodcut-framed title page for the Azharot. 261-263, 265-304, 306-311, 313-320, 322-324, 326-327, 329-344, 346-351, 353-388, 390-394, 399-454, 457-472, 474-479, 481-528, 530-535, 538-543, 545-551, 554-559, 561-578, 583, 586-590, 593-600, 602-640, 642-645 leaves.

[Orden de Roshasanah y Kipur]. Machzor for Rosh Hashanah and for Yom Kippur, translated into Spanish by Abraham ben Salomon Usque. Printed by the author. Ferrara, 1553. Spanish, with a few Hebrew titles.
In the mid-16th century, Ferrara was the spiritual center of Italian Jewry. Ferrara rulers, the dukes of the House of Este sympathized with the Jewish Marranos from Spain and Portugal, and under their rule, many Jews returned to Judaism. The city housed a separate Spanish community, several synagogues and a printing press for Hebrew, Spanish and Portuguese books.
The printer of this machzor, Abraham ben Salomon Usque, was born in Portugal and escaped to Ferrara in 1543, fleeing the Portuguese Inquisition. In Ferrara he worked with the printer Yom Tov Levi Athias (one of the Spanish Marranos). The same year that this machzor was printed, the two printed the Ferrara Bible, the first Bible with a Ladino translation in Latin letters. (The Bible was printed in two identical editions with the exception of one difference: One was intended for a Christian audience and therefore was dedicated to the Duke of Ferrara and the other was intended for a Jewish audience and was dedicated to Gracia Mendes Nasi).
XXV-CCLXII leaves (mispagination, i.e XXV-CCLXXII). Total of 248 leaves. Lacking 24 leaves at the beginning (including the title page). Good-fair condition. Many stains. The first leaf and several leaves at the end of the book are detached. On some pages, verses were erased with ink (apparently, ancient censor erasures). Ancient leather-covered binding, worn, torn and partially detached.
