Machzor LeYamim Noraim [prayers for the Days of Awe]. According to Italian (Apa’m) rite, i.e. suitable for the communities of Asti, Fossano, Alessandria and Moncalvo.
Manuscript in Hebrew, written on paper in more than one square Italian hand with Nikud. Instructions in a semi-cursive Italian hand. With several floral decorations and historiated letters. ff. 117. Some light wear. Contemporary calf, rubbed. Tall folio.

(Italy): (19th century).

A handsomely composed tall folio manuscript containing the complete prayers for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Interestingly the text here originally contained the blessing “Shelo Asani Kuthi” (Who did not make me a Gentile). These has been corrected to read in the positive: “She’asani Yehudi” (Who made me a Jew).
