Colleagues: Our library is deaccessioning a set of Rabbi Neusner's Talmud of the Land of Israel, published by the University of Chicago Press. This 35-volume set has both champions and critics but it is one of few English versions of the Yerushalmi and it reflects a great deal of scholarship. Most volumes are in As-New, Fine, or Near-Fine condition; a few are in Very Good condition, and one is in Good condition (but it is one of the volumes which took years to find). While some of the volumes are found easily, others are extremely scarce. Even the University of Chicago Press no longer has all volumes (and their prices are not particularly attractive). We have priced this at $1,850, which is a significant discount from the cost of purchasing the volumes separately. (I have never seen a complete set for sale.) Shipping in the continental U.S. is included. I would not normally post a For Sale notice on this list-serv (and I hope I am not violating any rules in doing so!), but because of the scarcity of this set and the centrality of the Yerushalmi in a Jewish library, I thought it worth sharing.
