About This Item
Bruges: Biblica, 1962 We should like to state clearly that ours is not designed to be a casual mass book which one picks up and takes off to church without a preview. We present a volume which calls for a serious study of every mass before its celebration. Prepared by a missal commission of St. Andrew's Abbey. Several lovely full page color art reproductions. Condition notes: [xvi], 1535 numbered pp + 1; HB no DJ. Pages: clean, bright, tight, blue eps, frontis, printed in brown and black ink on India paper, 2 ribbon markers; a.e. mildly sunned, hinge cracked at half title with crash showing, price sticker to front paste down, gift inscription inked to third free end page. Cover: black leather, device blind stamped front, gilt titles front/spine; modest shelfwear, extrems somewhat worn, front cover and first to preliminaries loose but intact.
