Catholic prayer book from 1791.
It says:
"Catholic prayer book
for the advancement
of
the true Christendom
by thinking and well meaning
Christians.
With permission of the superiors/rulers (?)
Third, increased edition, and with an
attachment for young men and women.
Trier (city), published by Johann Anton Schrull/Schroll/Schröll, bookseller and bookbinder 1791."
Just a catholic prayers book, probably not worth that much, but I'm no expert.
thank you so much
Was about to post this, can confirm what he says
Also
"With permission of higher-ups"
Post more senpai
>With permission of higher-ups
sadly this book was given to me by my friend (hes 85) and he didnt know anything about it. im not the biggest book connoisseur
i can say that i cannot find this specific book online. i was typing in passages and nothing was coming up on googles library for some reason
The actual title is "Katholisches Gebethbuch zur Beförderung des wahren Christenthums unter nachdenkenden und gut-gesinnten Christen", the author is Matthäus Reiter.
If I was you I would keep that thing, lock it away from the sunlight
It may not be of any worth now, but since it's from 1791, I it is for your kids
good advice. wasnt going to sell it just curious. i like collectable items :)
would be a shame if it caught on fire
Sounds like he is just a random Priest who helped out as much as he could
But he is a literal who nobody knows of, so I would guess the book really isn't worth something
Alright OP, this site offers the exact same book for around 20 to 70 Euros:

There you go.
