A Complete Set of Mishnayos Printed by Moshe Shapiro, Slavita 1830

A complete set of Mishnayos in 6 volumes, printed by the famed Moshe Shapiro, Slavita 1830. Printed with the Bartenura and Tosafos Yom Tov commentaries, as well as Chidushim from the Pri Chadash and R. Levi Yitzchok of Barditchev. 

This Mishnayos printed by R. Moshe Shapiro has been highly sought after by collectors for decades. Seder Zeraim is printed with the approbations of Chasidic leaders, such as R. Chaim Rappaport of Ostroh (author of Mayim Chaim) and R. Efraim of Sudilkov. 

Seder Moed (Vol II) belonged to R. Yeshaya Horowitz of Tzefas, who was a leading Chabad Rabbi and a descendant of the Shela Hakadosh. This volume is replete with his handwritten glosses, which were never before published. His personal stamp is visible on the title and first page.  

In overall good condition, bound in new leather bindings. The condition of the set varies throughout. Page size: Approx. 25cm. 


Zeraim: [4], 132 pp. With light water stains. Occasional light worming, sometimes affecting text.
