You most likely have opened your copy of The Szyk Haggadah to a reproduction of Arthur Szyk’s illuminated French Dedication page, which includes the date 1939, the year The Szyk Haggadah was originally expected to be published. This detail is misleading; the earliest printing of The Szyk Haggadah was in 1940.
