This Torah binder features the traditional inscription found on Ashkenazi examples—the wish that the boy will grow to study the Torah, to marry, and to perform good deeds. The illustrations correspond to these aspects of a man’s life. The binder bears an additional inscription, possibly including the maker’s name, added at the time the textile was offered to the synagogue of Mülhausen in Alsace in 1906, when the child was almost four years old.
