Lot 74:
Rare Pesach Haggadah (1960's) Large Illustrated Haggadah with a Brass Plaque on the front depicting Moses
Description
A rare magnificent original illustrated large Haggadah Shel Pessach in Hebrew and English in an imitation leather cover which was printed approximately 60 years ago by Sinai Publishing in Tel-Aviv, The front cover has a copper plaque – relief , depicting the biblical image of Moses with Tablets containing the 10 commandments.
With 17 colour illustrations by A. Allwell, an Essay by Max Brod and an accompanying text by I.M. Lask. With a revised English translation and copious explanatory notes by Dr. Joseph Loewy & Joseph Guens.
This Haggadah has been used and cherished at numerous Pesach Seders, as anticipated there are a few small marks from food but this does not detract from its overall appeal. The imitation leather binding is vivid and shiny with cracks in the spine.
