First Illustrated Haggadah with English Translation Printed in America. New York, 1866

Haggadah with English translation in facing columns with illustrations.

The Haggadah features 9 half-page illustrations and another 10 miniature illustrations depicting the Ten Plagues (side 21).

This was the first edition of a Haggadah printed in the United States with illustrations interwoven into the text.

The present Haggadah is particularly rare; the Jerusalem National Library does not possess a copy of it. It was recorded in Otzar Hahaggados based on a copy in a private collection.

New York, 1866. Page Count: 60 sides. Page Size: 22 cm. Condition: Several wine stains and minor breakage in margins. New half-leather binding.
