COMPLETE-IN-2-VOLUMES
IN TRADITIONAL PIUS XII LATIN

Here is one of the most extraordinarily rare
Breviaries we have ever auctioned:

BREVIARIUM ROMANUM

THE COMPLETE 2-volume, pre-Vatican II Roman Breviary
in Traditional Latin
with the Biblicum Psalter of Pius XII
(the last two scans are there to provide the very good reasons why Pope Pius XII introduced this Psalter!)

ALL THE OFFICES of the ROMAN BREVIARY

black leather/ette hardbound, 4" x 7", several thousand gold and red-edged pages
each with several ribbon markers, as printed

Rome etc: Desclee, 1961

See the pictures: this is a full set of the Breviary, but the covers for each volume are different, as is the page edging - and the title page of Vol II (Pars Altera) is missing (no sign of its being torn out - it was just never put in by the printers!) - I've provided a photo of what it would've looked like!

All the traditional pre-Vatican II "Hours" of the Office are here:
Matins and Lauds
Prime, Terce, Sext and None
Vespers and Compline

Also included: Grace Before and After Meals,
the Itinerary (Prayers before a Journey), etc!

BID EARY & HIGH!
for this most rare BREVIARY!
We cannot recall seeing more that a few of these complete sets in such wonderful condition
in many years of bookselling!
DO NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!
BID EARLY & HIGH!
