Babylonian Talmud, complete set of 20 volumes. With Piskei Tosfot, Rosh, Perush Mishnayot by the Rambam, Maharsha, Maharam Schiff, and Me'ir Nativ. Zhitomir: grandsons of the rabbi of Slavita, 1858-1864.
20 volumes. Approx. 42 cm. Mostly high-quality paper. Wide margins. Good overall condition. Stains. Worming. Considerable worming to two volumes. Tears and wear to one title page. Ownership inscriptions and stamps. New matching leather bindings.
This edition includes Meir Nativ, a composition by R. Shabtai HaKohen (a relative of the Shach), omitted from later editions of the Talmud printed in Vilna, Warsaw and Lemberg. The Chazon Ish favored the Zhitomir edition of the Talmud and praised it for its meticulous editing and the publishers' reverence of the Talmud, but mainly for including the Meir Nativ.
