Sobre este artículo
New York: The Modern Library, 1945. Modern Library Giant G-79. Cloth. Fine/Near Fine. Thick 8vo, red cloth with black labels with gold lettering on spine and front cover, archival mylar-protected pictorial dust jacket (unclipped) withthree medallions with representations of a Torah scroll & shofar, Hanukkah candelabra, and Ten Commandments, publisher's black topstain to pages for protection, 748 pages + [6] Ads. Weight: 1 lb. 11 oz. An EXCELLENT anthology in remarkable condition for such a plump volume. Contents range from the Bible/Tanakh to "the wit and wisdom of living writers." Tight and clean copy with a remarkably complete dust jacket (not price-clipped) with slight rubbing and a few rather clean nicks. According to Toledano's guide, the dust jacket dates from 1954-60 (p.170); publication of this edition ran from 1956-70 (p.120). We conservatively date this nice copy to about 1960.
