"Sipur Na'eh miSidur Tefilati" - a Story by S.Y. Agnon with his Signature - Proofreading Copy
"Sipur Na'eh miSidur Tefilati" [The Beautiful Story of My Prayerbook]. Typewritten proofreading copy, with numerous corrections written by hand. At the end of the story appears S.Y. Agnon's signature. [Jerusalem, ca. 1931].
Ten typewritten proofreading leaves with comments, corrections and instructions for the printer. Some corrections are written in square script and others in cursive script, and it is possible that some were written by Agnon while others by another proofreader. On the last leaf, following the writing "tam ma'ase hasidur" appears the signature of the author, S.Y. Agnon.
Apparently this proofreading copy was used for printing the story in issue 20-21 of the periodical "Moznaim", Tishrei 5692 (1931).
[10] leaves, 28 cm. Fair-good condition. Open tears at margins of first leaf. Stains, creases, slmall tears and pinholes to margins of all of the leaves.
Provenance: Collection of Hermann Meyer and his daughter Chana Sapir.
