Hebrew calendar. Constantinople 1549. Extremely rare.
Hebrew calendar printed as a Broadside for the Hebrew year 5309. In the footnotes it is written in Hebrew that the calendar is for the Christian year 1549, and the Arabic year 955.
Although from almost the onset of Hebrew printing, various calendars were printed, almost none of them have survived. This particular calendar is extremely scarce and to the best of our knowledge a complete copy does not exist.
Vinograd Constantinople 198. Half of the calendar (the upper right quarter and the lower left quarter). Each quarter approx. 20 by 16 cm.
Opening bid $500
