This pamphlet, published in New York in 1823 by D.A. Borrenstein, reprints William Harris's *Elements of the Chaldee Language*.

This publication is one of the earliest imprints of David Aaron Borrenstein, a printer who initially worked in London before relocating to New York and later New Jersey.

This book, published in New York City in 1838, is a Hebrew vocabulary titled "Imrari Shapher." It was compiled by Henry A. Henry (1801-1879) and M. Jackson. The vocabulary likely served as a learning tool for students of Hebrew, providing a list of words and their definitions.

This is an 1863 edition of a Haggadah, published by L.H. Frank's bookstore in New York. It's a reprint of an earlier edition by his father, and it features a modern binding.

This 1793 edition of "The Book of Knowledge," attributed to Erra Pater, a purported Jewish doctor of astronomy and physics, was printed in Hartford, Connecticut by Nathaniel Patten.

This 1793 edition is considered rare; only one copy is known to exist.

This edition is an American imprint and shows that the opera was popular enough to be published across the Atlantic.
