Volume including three books stereotypically printed in Shanghai (China) in 1946 by Shlomo Yosef Meizlish. Those three books are bibliographically unknown under these editions:

2. Midrash Shmuel, a Pirkei Avot interpretation, by Rabbi Shmuel De Uzeda. (Apparently stereotyped from the 1876 Warsaw edition).
3. Masechet Avot, with the commentary of Rabbi Yosef Ya'abetz Ha-Doresh. (Apparently stereotyped from a part of the 1880 Warsaw edition). Owner’s signature by Rabbi “Reuven Melamed”, [student at the Shanghai Mir Yeshiva, teacher and Mashgiach at the Ponevezh Yeshiva of Bnei Brak, among the leading Musar figures of the last generation]. Handwritten remarks appear on leaf 34 of Masechet Avot.
