This lot offers a pair of Catholic religious books representing keepsake and devotional traditions. The first book is titled "Mein Kommuniongeschenk," published in Germany by Butzon & Bercker, and dates to at least 1918. It served as a commemorative guide and prayer book for boys and girls on the day of their First Holy Communion. The volume contains prayers, guidance, and religious art, and features personal inscriptions that add historical and sentimental value. The second book is a small Catholic prayer book with an illustrated cover depicting Jesus and two children, and features classic prayers including an Indulgenced Prayer before a crucifix.
Both books exhibit period-appropriate binding and wear, with gilded or tinted edges and original endpapers. See photos for Measurements if Measurements were taken.
