* 50797-Rare French Antique Miniature Prayer Book - La Journée du Chrétien This rare French antique miniature prayer book, La Journée du Chrétien (meaning "The Day of the Christian"), though bearing a universal title, is a standard devotional volume meticulously crafted for Catholics by a Pontifical Publisher. Its content received the Church's solemn official approval (Imprimatur) as early as 1888, with the book itself being published in 1891—a clear and traceable chronology! The volume exudes the aristocratic charm of the Belle Époque, featuring an exquisite embossed leather cover and professionally applied gilt edges on all three sides. The interior bears a distinctive emblem: the IHS monogram representing Jesus, combined with the Eagle symbolizing St. John the Evangelist, all inscribed with the Latin maxim: "Operam non perdit qui Deo laborat" ("He who labors for God does not lose his effort"), powerfully declaring the publisher's faith and mission. Most captivatingly, the interior contains a heartfelt handwritten inscription dated 1904, marking it as a warm gift for a First Communion. 數量內容content ：一本書A Book 尺寸size：長L12.5x寬W9x厚H3cm 重量weight ：224g 材質material : 紙/皮革paper /leather 年份year：20世紀初early 20th century 印標Hallmark ：Missel des Croisades.
