Unbelievable bargain for a splendid medieval reproduction
I found this Haggadah in Paris and was ready to pay three figures for one. It was so inexpensive here that I bought three to give Its very, very heavy paper seems almost like the original parchment. It measures 11X13" and has some 100 full page plates. The colors, painting and calligraphy of this scribe could not be equalled in our century. It is perfectly clear...

The first review of this book mentions parchment paper. The edition that I received was on magazine paper. It did not represent the level of reproduced antique that was expected. The family who received it seemed to like it.

Unbelievable bargain for a splendid medieval reproduction,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ashkenazi Haggadah (Hardcover)
I found this Haggadah in Paris and was ready to pay three figures for one. It was so inexpensive here that I bought three to give Its very, very heavy paper seems almost like the original parchment. It measures 11X13" and has some 100 full page plates. The colors, painting and calligraphy of this scribe could not be equalled in our century. It is perfectly clear and could be used as a functional haggadah although you will certainly not want to drip wine on this treasure. Keep it away from rowdy kids but show it to everyone else. It's really a marvel. At the end of the book they have appended a modern English and Hebrew version, post Guttenberg style.

Sarajevo Haggadah Review,
By Vicente Moncholi (Sevilla, Spain) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ashkenazi Haggadah (Hardcover)
This book is beautiful, and the best I can say about is:I made a gift of this book to a hebrew family, and they decided to frame most of the sheets and hung it on a home walls. That explains well how magnificient and emotive is to whom loves tradition.
