Zivchey Shelamim. Laws of Shechitah and Bedikah, by Rabbi Yaacov [Yaaco Bek]. Brin, 5555 [1795]. [4], 2-5, [2], 2-28 [should be 39, [4]. 17 cm. Interesting composition for memorizing hilchot shechitah and bedikah, which was written in the form of questions and answers between Rabbi and student. The author, Rav Yaacov Bek, was the Rabbi of Leipnik, and the book was printed shortly after his death, with the approbation of Rabbi Mordechai Benet. Tens of lengthy hand written halachic and learned comments appear in most of the leaves of the book. On leaf gimmel (3): printing error, some student made a mistake…. Owner stamps of Rabbi Shimon son of Rabbi Akiva Yosef Shlezinger, known as the Lev HaIvri, and the writing and signature of the owner, Elchanan Rackendorf Shochet U’Bodek. First edition and rare book that was subsequently printed many times. The copy in the National Library, which is from the Mehlman Collection, is incomplete. Card binding is damaged. Time related stains. Minor damage to the white margins of several leaves but with no damage to the text. In good condition. In Ginzei Yisrael 809, a missing copy. Rare.
