The Book of Common Prayer, And Administration of the Sacrements,And Other Rites and Ceremonies of the Church, According to the Use of the Church of England: Together with the Psalter or Psalms of David.... 1729 University Printer, Oxford. 1729 to printed title page. Printed and Sold by Sam Birt,(Successor of Mr. Robt. Whitledge, deceased) at the Bible and Ball in Ave Mary Lane, London. to extra illustrated title page. 12mo. 13 x 7.5cm. A2- [T12]. Engraved portrait frontis. of George I, who had died two years before the title page date so we are presuming that both the frontis and the extra engraved title have come from an earlier edition of the prayer book. This volume also includes 49 engraved plates, printed on only one side of paper - the reverse being blank. Bound in early 18th century full crimson morocco, decorated in blind, slightly worn along edges. All page edges gilt. Blank endpapers to front of volume contain 4 separate ownership inscriptions. One central gathering of pages and a few odd leaves are slightly proud of main contents. Inner hinges visible at front and centre but sound. Final blank leaf is loose. Apart from these faults a clean and sound copy of a pocket prayer book from the early 18th century. 82864 Price:
