Rare Roman Missale For Visually Imapaired 1921 SIGNED 22 k.4th Edition
Jun 23, 2012 08:50 AM

This beautiful book I was lucky enough to locate at flea market. Its super rare I'm sure. It signed By Author I think?  ANTONIUS EPISCOPUS RATISBONENSIS. It's beautiful. Full Leather Binding with leather marking tabs. All done in 22k Gold Cross and leaves on binding.

It's special rare edition for visually impaired and blind priest. It's very large print. It's a Folio 4th Edition (1921) I do not believe many exist so it's hard to locate price for it.

It's made by the firm Fridericus Pustet who was known for fine printing and excellent Lithography. This is printed In Germany. 192 pages. Missale Sacerdotum Caecutientium.

I would not even consider selling on EBAY AT THIS point. Since it seems no one bids anymore. Where is best place to sell?

Does anyone know how many were made. I had some interest in book from library and book storres who deal in rare books. So I would love to get idea before iI sell it. Thanks everyone.

"Antonius Episcopus Ratisbonensis" is Antonius von Henle, who became Bishop of the Diocese of Regensburg (Ratisbon) in 1906.  An image of the title page would make replying easier.

There are a couple for sale on ABE currently.  Example:

 

http://www.abebooks.com/servlet/BookDetailsPL?bi=1316538358&searchurl=bi%3D0%26bx%3Doff%26ds%3D30%26kn%3Dmissale%26pn%3DPustet%26recentlyadded%3Dall%26sortby%3D17%26sts%3Dt%26x%3D67%26y%3D19%26yrh%3D1921%26yrl%3D1921

 

.The "Signature" of the Bishop is simply printed, I suspect.

I think there's a pretty good market on ebay for this.  See completeds:

 

http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=missale+romanum+leather&_sacat=0&_odkw=missale+folio&_osacat=0&LH_Complete=1

 

Very unlikely that's a real signature, just printed.  I'd list like this:

 

Missale Romanum Folio Leather Gilt Latin 1921 Beautiful Condition

 

We sell a fair amount of Latin Catholic material and it does well on ebay, not so well on abe/amazon, etc.

 

Start at a price you wouldn't be too sad to see it go for, expect most bids at the last minute.  Very nerve wracking.

Sorry, I'd add "Large Print" to the title, as well.
