MS. Reggio 63
Oriental Manuscripts Reggio Collection
Contents
Maḥzor according to the Sephardi rite with additional texts in the margins
A. Neubauer incorrectly categorized the mahzor as according to the Greek (Corfu) and Calabrian rite. D. Goldschmidt (Sefunot, 1964, p. 200) corrected Neubauer's mistake but referred to the MS with the wrong catalogue number (1080 instead of 1081). N. Vider (in Sinai 76 [1975], p. 9) returned to Neubauer's mistake.
The beginning of the codex is incomplete, later completion on paper (fols. III-VII).
