This unique copy contains two inscriptions to former president of Israel Zalman Shazar (1889-1974), in pen on the title page. One at the top is a 75th birthday gift inscription in Hebrew from a unidentified friend of Shazar, and below it is another warm inscription from artist Marc Chagall in Yiddish, dated 1964. Chagall writes: "In honor of the president and my good friend Z. Shazar, with love, Marc Chagall, Jerusalem 1964". It can be assumed that Shazar's friend gave him the book as a gift and Marc Chagall, who was present at the time, also inscribed it to him.
