Lovely marbled boards and quarter green leather bind. Gilt decoration to the front side and spine - very bright. Top of the text block gilt, fore edge and bottom of the text block dyed green. Pages not only clean and crisp but ornamented by beautiful woodcuts from Durer, Holbein, and others. Frontispiece of Elizabeth I. Housed in matching slipcase. pp.x+718. Pickering's original 1853 common prayer text lavishly illustrated for an exquisite reading experience. Very good overall.
