BUNREACHT NA hEIREANN.
Constitution of Ireland.
The special first printing of De Valera’s 1937 Constitution, with the
transitory provisions etc., as submitted for approval to the Cabinet,
on heavy cartridge paper, no printer, no date, but 1937, full dark
morocco gilt.
A very restricted printing, about 15 similar copies were signed
by all the Cabinet members at the meeting which gave it final
approval for submission to the people. The present copy has
no signatures. There may perhaps have been an unsigned issue
intended for diplomatic representatives, but we have not seen
another similar unsigned copy. It is certainly very rare.
