Pocket Calendar – Venice, 1638 – Cut Off from a Printer's Sheet
Parts of a printed sheet of a pocket edition of a 10-year calendar. Venice: Giovanni Caleoni, 1638.
The item contains four parts of a printer's sheet incorrectly cut in the middle, including the title page and colophon, totaling 24 pages on both sides (the inside pages of the sheet are cut in the middle).
These leaves contain the calendars of 1638-1643. The rest of the calendar is lacking.
Apparently, this calendar was appended to a siddur which was printed at that time in Venice, and this colophon is the end of that siddur, intended to be printed before the calendar leaves (the completion of the printing of the siddur is mentioned in the colophon as well as the name of the publisher and editor).
[4] leaves. 14.5X9.5 cm. Fair condition. Stains, some dark. Wear. Marginal tears. Cutting and tears affecting text.
Does not appear in the Bibliography of the Hebrew Book, nor in the NLI catalogue.
Listed by Benayahu, Asufot, 13, Caleoni Presses, Book 108, p. 210.
PLEASE NOTE: Some lot descriptions were shortened in translation. For further information, please refer to the Hebrew text.
