Toldos Adam - Teshuvos HaRashb"a. Livorno, 1657. First Edition
Toldos Adam - 405 responsa written by the Rashb"a [known as the second part of his responsa], printed here for the first time, arranged according to the accepted order of the division of the Rashb"a's responsa.
This book is one of the first printed in Livorno. An engraving of three large crowns appears on the last page, which is the printer's device of Bragadin of Venice. The explanation is that this printer, Yedidyah ben Yitzchak Gabbai, acquired part of his typographic materials from the Bragadin press, so that Bragadin's device is printed in this book. (See: A. Ya'ari, Diglei HaMadpisim HaIvriim page 131.)
Pages: 8, 104 leaves
Size: 28.5 cm
Condition: Overall in very fine condition, has minor worming.
