Misa Haireishiki (The Ceremony of Mass) by Fr. Bernard Petitjean
First published secretly by Petitjean in 1869, this is apparently the only other edition ever produced and was made to look as original as possible. Printed on very fine paper with fukurotoji style binding. Beautiful, different decorative borders on each page. This edition is quite scarce and was supposedly issued with a booklet that isn't present here. Housed in a decorative folding case.
