    Does anyone know the source or artist(s) responsible for the engravings which appeared in the Laverty & Sons' Daily Missal and are reprinted in the Baronius and Angelus Daily Missals and in the children's missal, Jesus, Make Me Worthy? I've long felt they are among the best Catholic engravings I've ever seen with beautifully rendered symbolism and am curious as to their origin.

    Hi,
    I wondered if anyone could help me locate something for a dear friend of mine. I am having trouble on where to even look. We were in 2nd grade together and had our first communion together...In around 1965, 1966 is when we had first comm. We had these little bibles that had a zipper on them and they held your rosary. His was thrown away when he was older and it was really special to him. I wanted to surprise him for Christmas with one and know there are probably 1000's of them out there but don't know were to begin...Any help would be greatly appreciated...Thanks so much!!!

    Many apologies for the delay in coming back to you. I would have to have an idea of what bible translation you had, but here are a few Revised Standard Version bibles on eBay for starters:

    I am very pleased to have discovered this site! I am an Anglo-Catholic priest and collector of liturgical books of all vintages (the oldest dating back 500 years) and so I am always interested in new acquisitions. I am very interested in English catholic (in all senses) Liturgies, including Recusancy, Anglo Catholic and the Sarum and York Uses. You may be interested in that I recently bought a copy of the 1912 Missale Anglicanum from Philip Lund for a very reasonable price. When it arrived, I discovered that it had the book plate and inscription of Fr Fynes Clinton of St Magnus the Martyr, where it was used. It is full of his corrections, interpolations from other books (S.S.P.P. 'Music for the Mass' and Missale Romanum) and although not a pure 1912 copy, it is a wonderful relic and a very interesting insight into the Liturgy of the leading Anglo-Papalist of this time.

    Thanks for the information on the Pocknee edition--and for updating your SoF sig to alert me to your current auctions. I've got a bid in on the 12th edition Parson's Handbok; we'll see if I'm bested or not before the day's end!

    Yours,

    Anthony.

    Wonderful! I look forward to reading your comments.

    My pleasure! I have the Pocknee edition and will try and review it for you soon. It was on my mind to do so but I hadn't got around to doing it, so I'm doubly grateful for the suggestion.

    Thank you for posting all of this interesting information! I would like to learn more about the Cyril Pocknee edition of the Parson's Handbook. Wasn't that an attempt to make it all somewhat more manageable?

    The copy of "Through the Veil" has now arrived, along with a couple of postcards reproducing the ilustrations in it, and I hope to be reviewing them shortly.

    To add - I have now found a source for a copy of "Through the Veil", with thanks to Fr Moncrieff for drawing it to my attention, and I hope that it will be with me shortly!

    You are very welcome, and thank you for your kind comments - please do keep coming back. I agree with you about the pamphlets - one of my first finds when I began collecting Anglo-Catholic materials was a bundle of pamphlets by the SPCK, Mowbray's and the Church Literature Association on a fascinating range of topics. I'm glad I've kept them, as they are so interesting yet so ephemeral. Thank you for the tip about "Through the Veil" - I wasn't aware of it before but am now!

    Thanks for the comments: as a collector I enjoyed them, and even had many of the books mentioned. What is being lost is the large number of pamphlets that were put out, sadly many now lost. Do you know anything of those wonderful illustrations that were put out, "Through the Veil"?
