I have 4 of the Priesthood and RS Manuals from the "Teachings of the Presidents of the Church" series in hardcover. These are exceedingly scarce, and many dealers and collectors have no knowledge they even exist. The McKay, Taylor, Grant, and Lee manuals are included here. The Grant volume has decorative fly leaves. The printing division of the church creates a few hardcover editions of the manuals for GAs and printing office management. There is some wear to the corners, and a small closed tear to the title page in one volume, but the insides are still near mint condition. You just don't see thes books in the market very often, if ever. Additional Photo

Hardcover.
Orem, Utah: Noble Publishing, 1980. 99p. This is a RARE book. It is estimated that 20-30 copies survived. The author had 10,000 copies printed, but before they were released to bookstores a General Authority asked him to destroy the book. The reasoning for the request is unknown, however speculation has run rampant, from doctrinal problems, to discussing the history of the calling of Patriarch when the Church patriarch, Eldred Smith, had been released the previous year. Whatever the reason, the author obediently took all but one case of the books to the dump. He held back a few copies for his children and grand-children. You will NOT find this book very often, and with the number of LDS book collectors increasing each year, once they are in private hands, it will be impossible to get a copy.
The book hass a bend to the front cover. A prior owner's name and address have been whited-out on the first blank page. DJ has rubbing to corners and the back.

Hardcover.
Book in VG condition. Previous owner removed the DJ and cut it apart, gluing the cover on the first blank page, and the blurb about the book glued to the inside front cover. There is also a library # written on the lower part of the spine. Other than those tragic flaws, the book is solid.
