Torah Scroll - US, Mid-20th Century
Torah scroll. [US?, ca. mid-20th century].
Ink on parchment. Neat Ashkenazi writing, Central and Eastern European style during the 20th century. The scroll was written with vavei ha'amudim [each column opens with the letter vav], in line with a Tikun Sofrim printed in the first half of the 20th century.
Height of parchment: approx. 53 cm. Fair condition. Thick parchment, glossy verso. Stains. Age-damages to letters in many places. Several membranes at the beginning of the scroll are detached. The scroll does not have atzei chaim nor a mantle.
Enclosed is a report by an expert on ancient Torah scrolls regarding the place and date of writing.
