Sefer Yuchasinwith ancient signatures. Krakow, [1580-1581]
First edition with Hagahot HaRema. Impressive copy.

Sefer Yuchasin Vekorot Am Yisrael, by Rabbi Avraham Zacuto, with glosses and additions by Rabbi Moshe Isserles – the Rema.

Second edition of the important book containing Jewish history from the creation of the world to the author's period (the year 1500). And the first edition with Hosafot HaRema and more additions. The many editions that were published later are based on this one.

Leaf 7b is blank. However, in the Bibliography of the Hebrew book, it was recorded: "We have seen a copy on which a page with text was mounted – "In an ancient book there was found, Sefer Bereshit, from the creation of the world to the death of Yosef… Sefer Shemot, from Yosef's passing to the building of the Tabernacle…" Written at the end: "So far what has been added to the book, from now on, the words of the book itself". Apparently, the printers had added this page and mounted it in some of the copies". In this copy, this text does not appear.

On the title page and the last leaf, there are ancient Ashkenazic signatures and ownership notations.

Krakow, [1580-1581]. First edition with Hagahot HaRema.
168 leaves, 20 cm. Very good condition. New, elegant and impressive leather binding.

Most impressive copy of a primary book on Jewish history.
