$14.99


Upfor sale is a lot comprising fourteen (14) vintage pamphlets, booklets, paperbacks, and hardcover books of Jewish interest, one in German,one in Hebrew and English, eight (including seven copies of The Haggadah) in Hebrew, and five in English. The oldest publication may date back tothe late 1880s (see the description of the first book listed, Manners and Customs of the Jews) -- it has an inscription penned on it with \'87 on it-- and the most recent is 1960, though some of the undated copies of The Haggadahmay be a bit later than that.


The books in the lot are:

  • Manners and Customs of the Jews and Other Nations Mentioned in the Bible, Being the First Part of a Course of Reading and Study on Sacred Antiquities, prepared for the Use of Home Normal Classes, by Direction of the Executive Committee of the Sunday School Union, published by Carlton& Porter, at the Sunday-School Union, 200 Mulberry Street, NewYork. All in English. 4-3/4 by 7 inches. 141 pages. Illustrated. With faded inscription on page 3 reading \"Frank E. Hopkins / Boston University \'87\" (this could refer to the year he wrote the inscription, which would be 1887 or the year he graduated from Boston University, which means the book could in fact date from much later). The 16 chapter titles are Habitations--Tents and Houses; Furniture; Dress, Clothing and Ornaments; Salutations--Visiting--Early Rising; Food--Fuel--Water and Other Drinks--Manner of Eating; Traveling; Cattle--Agriculture--Cultivation of the Land--Sowing and Harvest--Vineyards--Wine and Fruits; The Fine Arts and Images; Natural History--Philosophy; Divisions of Time; The Art of Writing--Books, and Substances Written Upon; Poetry Music, Dancing, and Public Amusements; Schools and Education; Marriages--Children; and Physicians--Medicine--Customs Relative to the Dead--Funerals. NOTE THAT ALTHOUGH NO AUTHOR\'S NAME APPEARS ANYWHERE IN THIS REPRINT, I BELIEVE THE BOOK WAS FIRST PUBLISHED IN THE 1840s AND MAY HAVE BEEN WRITTEN BY ONE GEORGE STOKES(NOT SURE IF THIS IS GEORGE STOKES THE IRISH ECCLESIASTICAL HISTORIAN).
