Description: סידור ירושלם Rare antique 12 Tribes Siddur YerushalimHEBREW "Prayer Book of Jerusalem" Silver plate case prayer book 5" 9 ozsmade in IsraelSiddur estimated 70 years old or older Cover is at least vintage, but exact age unknown. Here is what I know about this siddur: It sat for decades in our synagougue library. I originally listed it unpolished. The, today, I polished it. You can see the original silver-plate patina on the inside edge 9see photo) . So, if you do not polish this silver-plated case, it will eventually tarnish back to that patina shown. I do not know if this siddur case orignally came with this siddur. The siddur looks much older, especially now after the polishing. There is no date on the siddur but from my research I am estimating the age at circa 1930 to 1960. If you have any information about that please message me. Thanks! As you can see , both the case and the siddur are in excellent condition. The IFCP and title page have 1/16th of an inch or so clipped. otherwise, there are no marks, no tears, no problems. I have never remioved the siddur from the case. I am grading it, therfore, as VG+/VG+. You can decide if you want to polish it further or let it re-tarnish back to its lovely natural silver-plate patina which it will be after a year or 2 of use. Message me with any questuions or comments. Enjoy! Nusach Ashkenaz is a style of Jewish liturgy conducted by Ashkenazi Jews. It is primarily a way to order and include prayers, and differs from Nusach Sefard (as used by the Hasidim) and Baladi-rite prayer, and still more from the Sephardic rite proper, in the placement and presence of certain prayers. Our congregation, Brothers of Joseph, have upgraded their Machzors and Siddurs to The Artscroll , and are in the process of upgrading and/or replacing other Sefarim (Holy Books). So, the older ones, like this one, are being repaired if needed, and distributed to congregants and the world at large.
