Machzor for Rosh HaShanah and Yom Kippur according to the custom of Reisin and Lithuania, Poland, Pihem and Moravia, with Hebrew and Yiddish commentaries. Printed by Rabbi Chanina Lipa and Rabbi Yehoshua Heschel Shapira, grandsons of the rabbi of Slavuta. Zhitomir, 1848.
The books printed by the printing presses at Slavuta and Zhitomir are known as having special sanctity and segulah, and the printing tools and types were even immersed in a mikveh before the beginning of the printing process. Therefore, Chassidim used to look for machzors from these printing presses, as a segulah for being judged meritorious.
