This monumental opus fully describes the 127 Hebrew incunabula in the collection – the largest in the world – printed beginning from the 1460s until 1501. After more than 100 years of collecting, and with the early vision of Judge Mayer Sulzberger, the Library of the Jewish Theological Seminary has assembled a collection of  Hebrew incunabula that documents both Jewish printing and the historical importance of the Jewish texts.
