Kinkhead Censor Deputatus Imprimatur Michael Augustine Archbishop of New York October 5, 1897 - October 6, 1897 these priests were known for writing and teaching Baltimore Catechism - this book was not available for purchase at time of publication and was exclusively for subscribers (Catholic Church News?) - the art is excellent and the full color pages by Geo S. Harris are even more amazing - each full color illustration uses approximately 7" x 9" of a 9¼" x 12" page, meaning that these are clean and ready to hang after cleaning up chipping of pages and stains in the margins - full page color illustrations for Station 5 & 6 and their descriptions are missing from the 12 stations - the title page of the section Comprehensive History of the Books of the Holy Catholic Bible and Life of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of Christ by Rt. Rev. Bernard O'Reilly, L.L.D. (death at sea 1856) written expressly for this edition is copyright 1884 - on that page is the news clipping of the obituary of Hanorah Minton - Bonds of Holy Matrimony page is blank - Death page lists Lawrence Minton September 1883 (Hanorah's husband) - her death is written again on a memorial page - no other writing - condition is pretty bad as it is not really connected to a spine any longer - a piece of green electrical tape across the outer spine - a host of other dog eared corners and edges that are bent - the has obviously been well loved and then not stored properly. This is not wet or moldy or in any way smelly.…
