Tractate Zevachim of the Babylonian Talmud. Printed by the partners, the grandsons of the Rav of Slavuta, Rabbi Chanina Lipa and Rabbi Yehoshuqa Heschil Shapiro Press in Zhitomir, 1859.
Two title pages with red lettering. Without the Rif; with Chidushei Aggados by the Maharsha.
The printery of the Shapiro family of Slavuta, which was closed due to an informing to the authorities, was reestablished in Zhitomir in 1847 by the grandsons of the Rav of Slavuta, Rabbi Chanina Lipa and Rabbi Yehoshua Heschil Shapiro and operated until 1864. This printery printed an edition of the Shas with many additions. The format of the leaf was one of the most impressive ones. To some of the tractates, the composition Meir Nativ by Rabbi Shabtai Hacohen was added at their end. It is known that the Chazon Ish especially liked using the Zhitomir edition of the Shas because of the Meir Nativ composition that was added to it and which does not appear in other editions.
