Vintage Catholic Prayer Book Missal for Children - Jesus Giving Holy Communion to a Boy picture with Black Cover
Nearly Mint Condition
Circa 1950's/60's
Beautifully Illustrated
This wonderful treasure, simply titled "Divine Light" is not dated, but appears to be from the 1950's era. The imprimatur was given by Archbishop James Duhig (who served between 1917-1965). It was printed in Italy.
It has 63 pages, and includes gorgeous full color illustrations on almost every page. It has a hard black leatherette cover with a full color picture of the Our Lord holding a Chalice and giving 1st Holy Communion to a boy. It is just a bit larger than 3" x 5 inches.
This is one of the nicest Children's prayer books that I've seen!
It is in nearly MINT CONDITION, with no signs of use other than the very tiniest yellowing to the pages due to age. It was found after being in storage for decades!
