Passover Haggada that was printed by the "Stein Firm" of Amsterdam, which produced, imported and sold wine and hard liquors. The Haggada is written in Hebrew with rules and customs in Dutch.
The "Stein Firm" had a large shop and wine cellar in the heart of the Jewish Quarter of Amsterdam. The firm was reputable for its high-quality wine, which included wine that was imported from the Land of Israel.
In 1922, the firm gave its clients a Passover Haggada as a marketing gimmick, which indeed caused an increase in the profits.
The Haggada is bound by a cardboard cover. On the front, an illustration of a man with a goblet of wine in his hand – the trademark of the Stein Firm. The place and date of publication were printed on the back cover and are missing from the copy before us.
16 pp.
