Note that the JTS call number says 1728 but the date on the title page of the printing is 1729. Also note that this is Kotnot Or and that this copy was printed using the fonts from Amsterdam. The Frankfurt on the Oder Christian presses had issued Hebrew books before the end of the 16th century, but widespread printing began in 1695 with J.C. Beckmann and Michael Gottschalk, whose successors, F. Grillo, his widow, his daughter, and J.T. Elsner continued Hebrew printing until 1818. Gottschalk prepared the first Talmud edition in Germany (1697–99) which Behrend *Lehmann of Halberstadt financed, with 50,000 taler. Also note that there is a stamp in the book noting that thi copy belonged to Dawid Frankfurter. Can you hlep read the stamp? Maybe there is a place name that I cannot make out.- Owner
