About This Item
Loose-leaf. Good -/Fair. Archivally matted and framed decorated page from a damaged copy of the 1636 Scottish Book of Common Prayer, which was influential on the American Book of Common Prayer.
The decorated page is very fragile and shows evidence of minor tears in the upper left corner and the bottom right. As is evidenced in the photo, the page is decorated by an elaborate header, more than 1" high. After the page title, follows a delicately illustrated capital T.
The text gives instructions on how the Old and New Testaments are to be read throughout the year.
Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. A very nice portion of the scarce first edition of the Scottish Book of Common Prayer. Makes an excellent gift. Edinburgh: Printed by Robert Young, 1636. First edition. (#2189)
