Isaac Leeser's German Copybook

A twelve-page manuscript copybook (19.5 cm x 21 cm) predominantly written in German, with a single phrase in block Hebrew. Written on both sides of each page except the last. The manuscript lacks a cover. Most entries conclude with "Amen." Written by Isaac Leeser, this copybook is believed to date from his early years in America (circa 1825-1830), though further research is needed to verify the exact date and to determine if the manuscript was brought from Europe. Found among other Leeser papers. Reviewed and verified by Dr. Arthur Kiron and Bruce Nielsen at the University of Pennsylvania's Katz Center.
