The Bibliography of the Hebrew Book records two machzorim printed in Slavita in 1821, but they do not correspond with this machzor. One machzor has the same pagination, but a different imprint, while the second machzor has the same imprint, but a different pagination. These copies contain an additional leaf following the title page, presumably with a deed from R. Yisrael Bak, selling his rights to R. Moshe Shapira (see Bibliography of the Hebrew Book, listing 172635. This copy does not contain that extra leaf. This may be a variant.
