This beautiful vintage edition of The Roman Missal was published in 1962 and is bound in full leather with a pretty embossed depiction of Jesus to the front. The text block edges feature a beautiful gauffered floral pattern. The book features five ribbon page markers.
The book is in very good condition but there is light wear to the corners and board edges with some loss to the surface of the leather. The spine is sunned and rubbed, with scuffing to the leather.
Inside, there are no inscriptions or writings of any kind. The pages show light age toning but are otherwise clean and bright. There are pretty colour plates that have a very 60's feel to them! Dimensions approximately 15.7cm x 10.2cm x 4.7cm.
The book will arrive hand wrapped in patterned wallpaper and ribbon.
I use a range of eco friendly, 100% recyclable jiffy bags and boxes, and whenever possible I use brown paper tape. The green bubble wrap is oxo-degradable and the clear bubble wrap is 100% recyclable. I also reuse boxes when I feel it's appropriate (if the boxes are sturdy enough).
