THE TABLET ' PAPAL JUBILEE NUMBER
A COPY FOR PRESENTATION TO THE POPE
A beautifully bound copy of our Papal Jubilee Number was forwarded on Wednesday of last week to the Right Rev. Dr. Verdon for presentation to the Holy Father at the deferred Jubilee celebrations which ate to take place in Rome on November 16. The presentation copy was printed throughout on the finest half-tone paper, on which the letterpress and the seventeen pages of engravings were reproduced in a superior way by the members of our mechanical staff.
The accompanying engraving gives some idea of the external appearance of the presentation copy. It is bound in heavy bevelled boards, covered in the best hard-grained morocco, of an emerald green shade, with raised panels and two raised shields, the upper one of which bears, in gold, an engraving of the coat of arms and crest of Pius X. The whole cover- is neatly hand-finished outside and inside with gold and blind tooling, and titled. The inside is lined with satin in white and yellow, the Papal colors. This handsome cover was executed by Mr. Campbell, bookbinder, George street, Dunedin.
