I thought I’d post a few pictures of the zippered, bonded leather “Christian Prayer” from Catholic Book Publishing Company.

The manufacturer’s item number is 406/23. The ISBN is 978-0-89942-424-8. catholicbookpublishing.com/products/101

I was surprise when I opened it to find that this version has chant notation. The title page says “Edition with Music”. I own the non-zippered large print version from about five years ago and it has no musical notation at all. My first impression of the zipper is that it is pretty heavy-duty. Time will tell but I am happy with the quality and feel so far.

Looks like a very nice volume! I didn’t know it came in a zippered edition.
 
Looks nice, though I wonder if it’s “bonded Leather.” I’ve emailed with CBP a few times explaining I won’t buy their Ordinary Form Missal until genuine Leather covers are offered again. I’ve just had too many problems with cracked office chairs and belts breaking with that stuff. I was just looking today through a St. Joseph’s Daily Missal my church has from 1959 that still looks almost brand new with it’s genuine Leather cover. I wonder if this new one will last as long.
 
It is bonded leather.

I tend to be rough on equipment. I guarantee that neither the book nor it’s owner will be around 55 years from now.

This is the shortened condensed version of the “Liturgy of the Hours” or the “Divine Office”, which the Priests, Deacons, Second & Third Orders use for daily prayer.

The art is very unfortunate, but otherwise this looks like a nice volume.
