- Oliṿer Ṭṿisṭ : dos ṭragishe leben fun a yosem [Oliver Twist], Vol. 1, 1927
- Label
- This two-volume paperback of Oliver Twist was translated into Yiddish and published in Warsaw, Poland in 1927. Yiddish is historically spoken by Jews who lived in Eastern Europe and is grammatically related to German. While the cover is worn from handling, the pages are still 'unopened'. This means they are joined at the top of the page. The book's purchaser would have separated them with a paper-knife. This indicates this nearly-100 year old book has never been read.
