Maggid Devarav L'Yaakov. Kedushat Levi. Lemberg

Maggid Devarav L'Yaakov. Chassidic articles by Rabbi Dov Ber, the "Maggid of Mezeritch." Lemberg. Printed without name of printer or year, the chronogram alludes to 1697 [1797? 1811? 1830?]

Specifications: 4 [1] 4-31 leaves, 23.5 cm. The title page notes that this was the third printing, per the edition printed in Lemberg, 1792. Stefansky, Chassidut 328. The Bibliography of the Hebrew Book lists this edition with the date 1797. If so, the chronogram is off by 100 years. However, there are those who claim that it was printed c. 1830.

Bound with: Kedushat Levi al HaTorah V'Likutim by Rabbi Levi Yitzchak of Berditchov, without a title page. 

Specifications: 64, 31 leaves. 23.5 cm. The Bibliography of the Hebrew Book lists this edition as Galicia, c. 1840, "according to the Berdichew edition of 1811."

These are two fundamental chassidic works bound together. The style of printing and paper clearly indicate that both works were printed at the same place and during the same year. Therefore, both books were apparently printed in Lemberg soon after the printing of the first edition of the Kedushat Levi al HaTorah which was printed posthumously in 1811.

Condition: Overall fine condition. Marginal reinforcements to the first two leaves. Aging stains. Minimal worming holes. Old binding.
