"Hagaddah Shel Pesach"
This Hagaddah shel Pesach, with commentary by Dr. M. Lehmann, was published and printed by Oscar Lehmann in Frankfurt am Main in 1926. It is printed in old German typeface and Hebrew.
The 12 illustrations are black and white reproductions of hand-painted manuscript pages from Hagaddot [the plural form of "Hagaddah"] from the 13th and 15th Century now housed in museums. The service and commentary fill 211 pages.
The signature of the owner and the date of 1926 are handwritten on the flyleaf. It is a timely reminder of life before World War II.
