Detailed
Description		    Pirkei de-Rabbi Eliezer, eighth-century aggadic work, also called Baraita de-Rabbi Eliezer or Haggadah de-Rabbi Eliezer in medieval rabbinic literature because of its opening words: "it is related of Eliezer b. Hyrcanus."

While the title proclaims Slavuta as the city of press - there was no press in Slavuta in 1849. The typeface and title frame appear to be of presses that operated in Lvov.
