The Sepher Yezirah. The Book of Formation.

New Jersey: Heptangle Books, 1987. First Edition Thus. Hardcover. Octavo. xiv + 54 pp. Original gray marbled papered boards, with bronze title to spine. A nice letterpress production - printed in red black and blue throughout - of a translation originally published in 1877. One of the scarcer Heptangle titles. Some booksellers cite the first Heptangle edition as being from 1986, but we believe that this is the first Heptangle edition (1987) and the 1986 comes from a mis-reading of the ornate Roman numerals on the title page. Page edges lightly foxed, otherwise a Near fine copy in better than VG dustjacket (Dust jacket unevenly darkened, a few small discolored spots, very light rubbing and creasing to edges). Item #37470
