This is an adorable little Prayer Book for Children by Mother M. Loyola of the Bar Convent, York. The pages are edged in gold and there is a beautiful gold crucifix on a mother-of-pearl cross inside the cover. The book has many illustrations, at least 5 of them in color (I found a fifth one after I did the photos. If you want to see it, please message me. I keep finding more every time I flip through the book!). It is a small book made for a child so it only measures 4" x 2-5/8" x about 1/2" thick overall. The binding is a leatherette material and does have wear on the corners and edges. Pages are sewn in and they are 99% intact with only one split near the front and a bit of breakage on page 12-13. There are no torn or creased or missing pages. Inside the back is a penciled record of the child whose Prayer Book this belonged to and his date of First Holy Communion. Just a wonderful little keepsake.
Please view all photos as they are part of the description and feel free to message me with any questions.
