A facsimile of the 1480 Rome edition, the first Italian printing of Maimonides` Mishneh Torah. This edition is known to rely on manuscripts which were lost to later publishers, and is thus of critical importance to those wishing to thoroughly study this important text. 335x245mm. 35+693+X pages. Beige cloth hardcover in a plain board slipcase. Gilt lettering on front and spine. Slipcase damaged. Gilt decorations slightly worn. Pages slightly yellowing. This early edition of Rambam`s Mishneh Torah is otherwise in excellent condition.
