She'erith Yosef Responsa by Rabbi Yosef ben Gershom Katz. Fürth, 1767. Second edition.
Inscription on page attached to title-page: "I testify regarding this book, She'erith Yosef… that it belongs to the great Rabbi Moshe Sofer from Frankfurt am Main, Rabbi here in Pressburg".
The previous page includes various inscriptions in Hebrew and other languages: "Belongs to the great luminary… Rabbi Moshe Sofer".
"This book belongs to the ga'on and tzaddik…from the Chatam Sofer's family, Moshe Shmuel Glazner, Rabbi of Klausenburg and environs."
Rabbi Moshe Shmuel Glazner (1857-1925, Otzar HaRabbanim 15664), was a grandson of Rabbi David Tzvi Erenfeld of Pressburg, son-in-law of the Chatam Sofer. He filled the place of his father, Rabbi Avraham Glazner, in the Klausenburg rabbinate since 1878. Author of "Dor Revi'i" (lit. "Fourth Generation", since he was the great grandson of the Chatam Sofer). The verse "and the fourth generation shall return hence" was fulfilled by him, since he returned to Jerusalem and is buried there.

Although the title-page claims that the book was printed in Amsterdam, it seems from the approbation that it was printed in Fürth.
