It
is also the ONLY reprinted missal available
in complete conformity with the
final
revisions made by the Holy See in 1962
to the traditional Roman Missal. |

|
So
unlike the other “1962” missal being offered in the
USA, this edition includes:
-
St.
Joseph's name in the Canon (added
in November 1962)
-
ad
libitum prefaces (added in April 1963 and
which includes the restored Advent preface)
-
pro
aliquibus locis (for some places) section
specifically for the USA dioceses (added in
December 1962)
-
imprimatur
by Cardinal Spellman

The
famed Benziger Brothers were one of America's premier
printers to the Apostolic See before they went bankrupt
shortly after the Second Vatican Council.

This
faithful reprint of their altar missal is a testament to
their labors which were not in vain and are of service
to American Catholics in the 21st century as they were
40 years ago in the 20th!
