For these details about the printer of the amulet, see the text at the very bottom of the amulet (under the hamsa and the menorah).<\/p><p>Compare to the amulet in the <a target='_blank' class='externalLink uom-purple' href='https://cja.huji.ac.il/gross/browser.php'>Gross Family Collection (GFC)<\/a>, 027.015.005. <\/p><p>For another version of this amulet that was probably printed by Judah Castiel see <a target='_blank' class='externalLink uom-purple' href='https://www.digitalcollections.manchester.ac.uk/view/MS-GASTER-AMULET-00121'>Gaster Amulet 121<\/a>.<\/p>"
