Talmud Bavli, Masechetbrachot, special edition on “regal” paper, wide margins. Vilna 1880.
“Regal” edition, printed by the Ram family between 1880-1886. The Vilna Shas is one of the most famous editions of the Talmud. Almost all later editions are based on the page layout and order of the Vilna shas. Printed by the Ram family, who invested many resources in creating a precise, beautiful Shas with more than 103 new commentaries. This work required hiring a staff of talmidei chachamim and getting dozens of early manuscripts and editions of the Shas and its commentaries. After 6 years of work, this Shas was completed and won rave reviews and was beloved by many talmidim. Printed on especially high quality paper with wide margins, it is a true joy to learn from. It has stood the test of time as one of the most popular editions and widely accepted ever. Generally ok to good condition. Light tear in the bottom of the cover, with tape on the bottom and on the bottom of the following page.
