Description
Siddur Tefillah Nechona Zaka U'Me'usheret - Siddur of Polish tradition, with Tractate Avot, Seder Chanuka and Purim and parshiot. With comments and versions from the handwritten siddur of Rabbi Shabtai Sofer. "Brought to print by those unmercenary people who pursue justice and desire good to benefit Jewish children… the society of Talmud Torah and child education in London". London, [1852]. In the center of the title page is the emblem of the "Society of Talmud Torah and child education, founded in 1817".
Third, bibliographically unknown edition of the siddur - first printed in London in 1822 by the Talmud Torah V'Chinuch Yeladim society. The addition of the commentary of Rabbi Shabtai Sofer in a manuscript found in the library of "Rabbi Shlomo Av Beit Din of our community" is mentioned on the title page of the 1822 and 1837 editions. These editions were printed during the lifetime of Rabbi Shlomo Hirshel Av Beit Din of London. Nevertheless, in this edition printed in 1852, the manuscript is mentioned on the title page as "found in the library of our community's Beit Midrash - collected by the Av Beit Din Rabbi Shlomo" [the library of Rabbi Shlomo Hirshel, which contained a rich collection of books and manuscripts, bought from his heirs after his death by the Beit HaMidrash of the Ashkenazi community of London].
