Item description from seller

First Edition (NAP). Text in English and Hebrew. 'The exhibition was prepared by Beth Hatefutsoth in cooperation with the Museum of the Federation of the Jewish Diaspora and The Museum of the Federation of Jewish Communities in Rumania.' Once listed, this will be the Only copy for sale anywhere on the Internet. It's in very solid shape, but does have some condition issues. For that reason, I've listed it at a very modest price, half of my original intention. As you can see from the photos, the covers have a little bit of wear, basically just some small areas or spots of scuffing. The book is actually solidly bound, but the glue that binds the text block to the inside of the spine dried up and needs to be pasted back in place. Nothing is detached. In fact the text block, the pages in the book, are all nicely, tightly, bound to one another and to the rear cover. Nothing appears to be at risk of detaching, including the front cover. There is one other flaw: the title page has a slightly darker area off part of its outer edge and on the verso copyright page. It can also be lightly made out on the next page. You can't see any discoloration on the rest of the long Introduction, but when you reach the pages with the white background you'll be seeing a light yellow stain off their outer edges. Once you reach the text again (now and Hebrew, assuming you read from left to right) which is on beige backgrounded pages, there is no stain at all to see. That's making me wonder whether the 'stain' is actually foxing, as the pages are of a glossy material that often invites foxing. It's a little unusual. Anyhow, the not seeing any other flaws in the book. There isn't any creasing. There are no markings. There are no attachments of any kind. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. I'll provide photos that will allow you to get a look at what I'm describing.…

Store description

Many of the books I will be selling can accurately be described as ranging from somewhat rare to very rare. In some cases there won't be another copy for sale anywhere on the Internet. There doesn't seem much point, for you or me, in offering something that so many others are already offering. Subject matter will range very widely, creating the possibility for people with very different interests to find something that excites them. As regards pricing, my primary goal is to sell the book. Most often I would expect my book to be the least expensive option on the Internet taking into account an appropriate comparison(what is the condition, is the dust jacket present, is the book signed, is it a first printing, etc.). More important than selling the book I want to make sure that you know, as much as is possible, exactly what you are getting. To that end, you'll notice that my descriptions of condition tend to be lengthy, and that there will always be photographs to help you draw your own conclusions. Please feel free to contact me with any questions about a given book. As regards international shipping, the first class or standard rates I charge are based on a package weight between 2 and 3 pounds. If the book is on the thin side there is a possibility that I can securely pack it up under 2 pounds in weight. If so, the shipping price will drop by around $11.00 or $12.00 to $26.00-27.00. Canada, which is less expensive drops to $18.00. You can contact me before purchasing a book for an estimate on the shipping cost. If you buy the book and it weighs in below 2 pounds you'll get a Reduced Shipping message and amount with the invoice and you'll see the lowered final cost before you make your payment.…
