12. Mechliniae (Mechelen), H. Dessain, successor P.J. Hanicq, 1858, large in-4°, 36 x 25 cm, (48) nn pp ( with 2 full page wood-engravings) + 488 pp + cxxxi pp + (7) pp + 66 pp ( Missae propriae sanctorum archidioecesis Coloniensis). All pages printed in red and black and within typographicals fillets. With numerous large woodcut initials. With a total of 9 full page wood-engravings made by H. Brown ( some signed in the woodblock). Interior genarally fine with the exception of the (daily used) canon part of the missal. These pages show some thumbing and wear. BINDING: Full brown morocco over wooden boards , raised spine with gilt title . All edges gilt, with matching leather tabs bearing gilt initials. Both covers have four large nearly rectangular recesses around a small central lozange. Marbled endpapers. The binding has two large silver-plated clasps and 8 silver-plated corner protections, together with on both covers 4 hexagonal silver-plated studs. On the inside of the movable parts of the clasps is engraved '' D. 27 Novemb. 1858 Th. & B '', on the other clasp '' P. Schwann''. From the contents of the missal we may deduce that its first use was for the diocese of Cologne ( Köln) in Germany. The meaning of the engraved inscriptions remain unclear. It could be the name of the donor, the first owner, or even the bookbinder. Fine specimen of a missal of the Roman Catholic Church in a very well preserved spectacular binding with metal ornaments and clasps. The missal, always in Latin, was the most important book in the Roman catholic liturgy and served during mass (Eucharist celebration). It was made universal for the Church at the Council of Trent (1545-1563) and virtually made redundant at the Second Vatican Council in the 1960's.
