The lead printing plate in the collection of the Regional Museum in Pińczów contains the Hebrew text of the book Conversations of Life. It is rectangular and is covered with two columns of text.

The plate was found in the vicinity of Pińczów synagogue ca. 1964. The only clue we have concerning the printing of Hebrew books is that in 1899 Izaak Rapoport opened a printing house and bookshop at 29 Rynek Square, which operated until 1940.
