Description: Extremely rare Polish version of the widely acclaimed Schlesinger Guens Haggadah, printed in 1930. Superb condition, binding is tight, nearly as it was new, just has end paper gapping due to age. Virtually no marks in the interior, very clean and clear pages throughout. Absolutely no writing or inscriptions or anything extraneous from previous owner. Appears to have been stored properly as a keepsake & not used often at all. This version was printed in an extremely low quantity and is the most rareof all language versions he published. Its scarcity is not even comparable to the other three works in their respective languages, which is widely available. (Although never in fine condition, as Haggadahs were meant to be used at a table with food and wine) All pages are as new as possible for this paper and considering it being from 1930, page corners are needle sharp except just one page with a minor creased corner, 64 pages plus a couple end pages at each end. Colors are beautiful and vibrant in all the illustrations. Especially scarce in this condition. Board designs are complete, however there is some spotting close to some edges. Usual fraying at ends of spine, corners, and the like. Quoting from the first title pages, for the discriminating collector: Objasnili: Dr Filip Schlesinger i Jozef Guns Na jezyk polski przetozyt Dyr.
