Printed Booklets for Aliya L'Torah – Vienna
A set of printed "booklets" for aliya l'Torah. [Vienna, beginning of 20th century].
Each "booklet" is comprised of two leaves, pasted unto a hard cover. The blessings of the aliya l'Torah are printed on one leaf and on the other is a list of the institutes in Vienna for contributions to charity [in each booklet a red ink line is drawn under the name of one of the institutes]. A paper label is pasted on the cover of each booklet with the name of the aliya [cohen, levi, shlishi etc.] or the honor bestowed [hagbaha and gelila]. The booklets were distributed before the Torah reading amongst the men who were designated to receive an aliya.
Attached is a matching cardboard sheet on which the names of the aliyot and the honors are printed.
11 booklets + a cardboard sheet, in their original box. Overall good condition.
