I have taken a little break from the "great book sale" as I work at clearing out some things. I've made a decision that I really haven't had an opportunity to use the breviaries I've collected over the years and so I've decided to sell off much of it.
Here is a good chance for those of you who want to acquire some breviaries according to the traditional liturgical uses of different Western 'rites' to get some of these -- including some pre-Pius X editions, as well as some noteworthy antiquarian editions.
In many instances I hear from more than one person about an item, so if there is a suggested price, please make sure to note if you have a "highest offer" you'd like to make in case more than one offer comes in. (If it doesn't, then the base price will be the price in those instances.)
Needless to say, these prices do not include shipping costs.

Breviarium S.O.P., 1875 (Pre Pius X edition)
The breviaries which sit prior to the reforms of St. Pius X are of great interest to liturgical scholars and hobbyists insofar as they retain unique features and aspects which were lost and flattened out in many cases following to the reform. They are rather difficult to find.
Price: $450.00 USD

Maurist Diurnal, 1741
Not only a nice little antiquarian volume (with some spine damage) but also a rare little volume insofar as this is the Maurist version of the Benedictine breviary.
Price: $150.00 USD

Breviarium O.Praem, 1892 (Pre Pius X edition)

Breviarium Vaticanum
The custom binding titling is a bit misleading in one sense, but what this is is the Roman breviary according to the use of the canons/clergy of the Vatican Basilica (St. Peter's Basilica). Suffice it to say, this is quite rare.
Price: Make an offer.

Breviarium Parisiense, 1736
This is a pretty significant set. Many of you have heard of the neo-gallican liturgical books. Well here is one of the key one's: the 1736 edition of the Parisian breviary, or Breviarium Parisiense. They are an oversized set of breviaries in a typically beautiful 18th century binding.
