‎" Mechlinae ( Mechelen ), H. Dessain, sucessor P.J. Hanicq, 1855, in-folio, 39,5 x 27 cm, [1] (40) nn pp + 514 pp + CLIV pp ; [2] (4) nn pp + 26 pp + (70) nn pp ; [3] 110 pp + (20) nn pp. The first part [1] is the Mechlin Missale ; Part [2] Missale Romanum, cum Missis Eccl. Rotomagensi Propriis, Rouen, Fleury, 1861. Part [3] Missae Propriae Archi. Parisiensis-J.H. Guibert, Paris, Le Clere et Socii, 1873 Bound in black morooco, edges painted red, kept in a purposely made wooden box, lined with red velour. The book is in excellent condtion, notwithstanding some minor scratches at the binding and 1 tab which has come loose. The box is worn and a bit scruffy. Fine , important and unique specimen of a 19th c. illuminated missal, produced around 1860-1870 when the art of ''missal painting'' was at its highest level. As often with 19th c. illumination we were unable to identify the artist. The calender of the Mechlin missal contains some illuminated additions which most probably refer to the patron of the art work '' Em. de Trémauville de Beaucourt '' (uncertain ?). Missal [1] and [2] each are preceded by a separate manuscript title. All pages have different elaborate coloured borders. The initials are either figurative or heightened with gold and you find them on nearly every page. The subtitles and full page engravings ( 8 ) are all fully painted. The second missal [2] is printed on high quality vellum paper and is equally illuminated, allthough in a somewhat lighter style. Missal [3] with the addenda is not illuminated. A stunning example of the 19th c. revival of the art of illumination, finely preserved."‎

‎Missale Romanum ex decreto sacrosancti concilii Tridentini restitutum. S. Pii V. jussu editum, Clementis VIII et Urbani VIII Papae Auctoritate Recognitum, in quo Missae novisimae sanctorum accurate sunt dispositae. (Half-title : Novum Missale Romanum).‎

‎" Venetiis ( Venice -Venetia), apud Haeredes Balleonios , 1849, format in-folio (40 x 25 cm). Title page with engraved vignet and typographical border printed in blue + 44 pp + 1 leaf with lithographed ills. on both sides + 548 pp + lxxxviii (88) pp + (1)(errata) + 3 full page mezzotint plates. (complete but for 1 lithograph -tabula I (?) in the introductory leaves). The missal is entirely printed in red and black, in two columns, with numerous woodcut initials, all page with a double fillet border with corner ornaments.; many pages with printed scores of music ( red printed staves, 12 per column). Bound in contemporary half roan, boards covered with marbled paper, binding with some wear but still a very good copy with a near spotless interior. The missal was probably never used. It belonged to the library of the Belgian printing house Hanicq - (later) Dessain, which collected these missals as they were themselves publishers of missals and liturgical books for the Roman Catholic Church. (Identification via a small paper label on the spine with only a number ( nr. 714). In-folio missals in this condition are very rare. The book was in daily use during the celebration of the mass which resulted after a lapse of time in heavy wear.."‎

‎ Mechliniae (Mechelen), H. Dessain, successor P.J. Hanicq, for the Sacra Congregatio de Propaganda Fide, 1855 in-folio, (39,5 x 26,8 cm) 42 nn pp including title, lithographic front. and fullpage woodcut (Brown-Lies) + 514 pp + clv pp + 2 pp (Pro Soc. Iesu) + 40 pp (Missae Propriae Sanctorum Belgii) with 10 full page wood engravings (engraver T. Brown), All pages printed in red and black and within typographicals fillets. With pages of music scores. Missal has been in use up till the 1920's. Proof of that are some additions of 1927 which have been inserted. Notwithstanding some very sparse foxing spots ,some offsetting of the inserted leaves and some damaged or missing tabs (bookmarks) still a very good copy . BINDING Bound in contemporary deep red velvet over wooden boards. Both covers decorated with large embossed silver roccoco ornaments, including silver border with corner pieces and 8 bosses. The frontal central cartouche figures Saint Vincentius à Paolo with the baby child Jesus. The cartouche at the back represents Mary queen of heaven with child. Both cartouches , as the two clasps , have the hallmark of master silversmith Auguste Joseph Gavier (Courtrai- Flanders 1814 - 1863). Endpapers in white satin, ,All edges gilt. Apart from a small loss of velvet at the tail cap the binding is excellently preserved, not in the least due to the good functioning of the well designed eight bosses. Fine example of a silver altar missal, in fine condition with hardly any traces of use, which is rare because these missals were in daily use during mass service in the Roman Catholic church. This missal can be considered as a sumptous highlight of the Roman Catholic church litugical books, a church which had regained strenght after the debacle of the French Revolution .‎
