KING EDWARD THE SEVENTH'S 

 PRAYER-BOOK. 



This will be a sumptuous edition of the Book of Common Prayer, 

 which, by gracious permission of His Majesty, will be entitled * King 

 Edward the Seventh's Prayer-Book.' 



The new Prayer-Book will be hand printed at the Essex House Press, 

 and whilst conforming to the Authorized Version will rank, as a piece 

 of typography, with the Great Prayer-Book of Edward VI. It is to be 

 in new type designed by Mr. C. R. Ashbee, with about one hundred 

 and fifty woodcuts, and is to be printed in red and black on Batchelor 

 hand-made paper. There will also probably be a special binding of 

 green vellum with a gold block design and clasps. 



Exceptional circumstances connected with the Book of Common 

 Prayer render it essential that this work, in order to be of historic value, 

 shall be issued with the imprint of the King's printers ; the Prayer-Book 

 will therefore be published by his Majesty's printers, Messrs. Eyre and 

 Spottiswoode, acting under the Royal Letters Patent, who will superintend 

 the work of the Essex House Press. 



Mr. EDWARD ARNOLD, publisher to the Essex House Press, is now 

 entering subscriptions for the work, and as the few available copies are 

 being rapidly taken up, those who desire to possess this important work 

 are recommended to apply as soon as possible. 



The edition will be strictly limited to a total of four hundred copies 

 for England and America, at a price of Twelve Guineas (12 123.) nett. 

 There will also be five copies for England on vellum at Forty Pounds 

 (^40) nett, all of which are already sold.
