HaTzfira, "periodical publishing news… matters of state, science, world news and nature", edited by Haim Zelig Slonimsky. Warsaw, [1862]. First year, issues 1-25, bound together.
"HaTzfira" – first Hebrew paper in Poland during the Russian regime and one of the most important Hebrew papers printed in east Europe. It was founded in Warsaw in 1862, but the period's events – the Polish revolt in 1863 and the fact that the editor Slonimsky became a supervisor of a seminary for rabbis in Zhitomir – resulted in the discontinuation of the paper after six months and twenty-five issues only. Slonimsky resumed publication in 1874 in Berlin, and one year later the headquarters returned to Warsaw and stayed there throughout its existence. In 1886 "HaTzfira" became a daily and continued to be published as such for twenty years. Since 1906 it was published irregularly (in varying formats) until shutting down in 1931.
200 pp, 28.5 cm. Good condition. Stains, some dark. Tears (among them two long tears, partly restored with pasted paper). Creases. Pen inscriptions to some leaves.

HaShavua, forum for all Zionists, national newspaper for Jewish issues, editor and publisher: Ya'akov Shmuel Fucks. Printed by Yosef Fisher Karkov, Vienna. Volume of fourth year issues: Issues 1-51, January-December, 1900.
Volume which binds fourth-year issues of the HaShavua periodical (Issues 3, 6, 7, 9, 14, 17, 27, 38 are lacking).
HaShavua is another name of the HaMagid periodical – the first Hebrew newspaper which first appeared in 1856. HaMagid underwent several adjustments and changed its name a number of times due to the censor. In 1900, it was published with two different names. The periodical published news, primarily of Jewish communities and sections of poetry and literature as well as other articles.
