Product code: Very rare antique DEANS buying RAG BOOK~The Lords Prayer~1st Edition showing patent date of 1916

This is a very rare example of a Dean`s Rag Book with a beautifully illustrated version of The Lord`s Prayer. The patent is dated at 27th April 1916 (see close up photo) which, being mid way through the first world war would indeed be a time when much praying was done.

The condition is exactly as seen and every page is photographed for you. The inner pages are lovely and clear with just quite minor marks whilst the cover pages have some fading and foxing. I have not attempted to clean it.

This really is a rare gem for collectors and would be a lovely addition to any display of antique toys and books. I can`t help imagining this little book being a comfort to a mother and her little one during a very frightening time.

THE MEASUREMENTS...

The closed book is 5½" x 4¼".
