First edition according to the Standard of 1892. 28 566 2 pp. Title printed in red and black with floriated borders by Bertram Grosvenor Goodhue title in black letter. 1 vols. Folio. Copy #12 of the limited issue of the revised Book of Common Prayer overseen by D.B. Updike and signed in ink on the verso of the title of many of the principals associated with the revision approved at the 1892 General Convention including financier J.P. Morgan who helped fund the edition's publication. The limited edition was prepared in two forms one being this form intended for distribution to each diocese and jurisdiction within the Church with original signatures on the verso of the title and with a variant title all in black letter without border. The standard limited edition of 500 copies on handmade paper has the signatures of the principals in printed facsimile and a foliated border around the title resembling those around the main text and the central "Laudate Dominum" device and the two lines: "Together with the Psalter or Psalms of David." Updike comments at length on this project in his introduction to NOTES ON THE MERRYMOUNT PRESS and about his role in the attempted rescue of an ill-conceived attempt to produce a decorated edition from the plates of the 1892 printing: "The best things about the book were the cover and charming end-papers which Goodhue designed for it. Sad to relate the edition had an immediate and resounding success! We were congratulated and we blushed. Our shame was taken for modesty and we were congratulated more! While the book is indeed a strange one it is by no means so strange as the designs originally made for it" see pp. 9-10. Nonetheless the experience was an important prelude to the production in 1928 of Updike's own edition widely regarded as his finest work. Laid into this copy is a photocopy of the 4pp. leaflet ON THE DECORATIONS OF THE LIMITED EDITION OF THE STANDARD PRAYER BOOK OF MDCCCXCII.

This compact Book of Common Prayer was published during a period of particularly fractious religious tumult just prior to the start of the First English Civil War which was fueled in part by what was seen as King Charles I's pro-Catholic sympathies exemplified by his implementation of a more ceremonial sacramental version of High Anglicanism. Some of these contentious changes - as well the disquiet fomented by them - are alluded to in the Preface and "Of Ceremonies Why Some Be abolished and some retained" all of which follow "An Act for the Uniformitie of Common Prayer" on A2-A3. "Cum privilegio" printed at the foot of the title page. A gift to the General Theological Seminary from the then-Dean of Trinity Cathedral George McCormick.
