Rare Antique Catholic Prayer Book Circa 1902- Belgium bound-Printed in N.Y.: $125.00
Offering a Rare Antique 1902 Catholic Prayer Book, printed in New York by BENZIGER BROTHERS and bound in Belgium.This book features a hard celluloid cover, gold edges and working clasp.Size: 4"tall x 2-1/4"widePages: 164Condition: Excellent (I am not a book collector-- for 1902, comparatively, condition is my opinion).Background--I came upon this book at an estate sale. My interest is vintage jewellery, and this book was part of the case lot I was interested in (there were 2 books, this one is in better condition).After the sale, I was approached by two collectors trying to purchase just this book. I decided to hold on to it, as I myself am a Gen Z Catholic and never seen one in my life or years at Catholic school long ago.It is simply beautiful! I have read it, cherished it, and full disclosure, listing it has not been easy. I am, however; the last generation of Catholic in my family and this book deserves to continue on. Thank you for looking.
