A lovely contemporary binding which is now somewhat worn and used but all the more charming for it. The decorative gilt border on both boards is worn and rubbed and the red leather cartouches in the centre of both boards is rather roughly cut into what is supposed to be an oval and the one on the rear was applied to the board upside down. Another nice feature of the book is that on the title page, a printed slip has been attached over 'The Church of England' which reads 'The United Church of England Ireland' suggesting that the book was in used at least until 1800 and the brief union between the two churches. The pages for the order of communion are soiled being both darkened and also splashed with, possibly communion wine (!) in a few places the name of the King has been crossed through and replaced with Victoria, a couple of pages have short tears. The lettering of the signatures doesn't entirely match up but overall the charm and appeal of this copy is originality of both the binding and the usage it has so obviously had as an altar copy. Size: Quarto. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilo. Category: Religion & Theology; Inventory No: 78271.…
