1886 Common Prayer & Hymnal, 2 little morocco volumes

Please note that I will be listing a number of various translations of the Bible and Bible commentaries from an old Bible collection, which also has a number of Books of Common Prayer.

The Book of Common Prayer, and Administration of the Sacraments; and other Rites and Ceremonies of the Church, according to the use of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America: Together with the Psalter, or Psalms of David. New York: The New York Bible and Common Prayer-Book Society, 1886. WITH: The Hymn Called Benedictus also the Order for Daily Evening Prayer as set Forth for the Use of the Church by the General Convention of 1886. AND: Appendix. Alterations and Additions to the Book of Common Prayer finally adopted bye the General Convention in the Years of Our Lord 1886 and 1889. 16mo, morocco with all edges gilt. This volume has a pocket as part of the binding which the cover of the Hymnal fits into so they are joined together.

AND: Hymnal According to the Use of the Protestant Episcopal Church of the United States of America. Revised Edition. Printed by the Cambridge University Press for: New York: James Pott & Co., 1874. Matches the above, with the title in gilt on the back cover! Unfortunately the front cover has been pulled because of having been in the pocket and is split for the top 2 inches, though the cover is still attached. All edges gilt and still a very nice set.

Note that the type in the BCP is of two sizes, larger for the commonly used parts. Some of the pages have 2 numbers on the page related to the revision retaining reference to the old edition. (see pictures)
