Pentateuch with Targun Onkelus, Rashi, and Ohr HaChaim commentary. Slavita, [1818], Rabbi Moshe Shapira Print.
Five volumes in elaborate leather bindings. The name of the Chumash and place of print are printed on the title-pages in red ink. The names and places of print are also embossed on the spines, and the year 1813 was accidentally embossed instead of 1818. The book Ohr HaChaim has been accepted as a fundamental book in the Chasidic world, and the Slavita edition is particularly liked, as it was printed by the holy Rabbi Moshe Shapira, son of Rabbi Pinchas of Koritz.
Breishit: 244 leaves; Shemot: 268 leaves; Vayikra: 176 leaves; Bamidbar: 200 leaves; Devarim: 194 leaves. 22 cm. White and blue paper. Fair-good condition. Owners' signatures and ink-stamps in Russian. In the Vayikra volume, some of the title-page was made from a different copy (as evident by the year written); in the Bamidbar volume, the title-page is not original and the printer details were taken from an 1821 edition, and its last 3 leaves are photocopied.
