At the top front page, the image depicts jesus Christ surrounded by His disciplies. On the left hand side of this picture there is the symbol of the Holy Eucharist (IHS) while on the right hand side is the globe with the Cross on top. Underneath this, there is a picture of the Basilica of St Peter's in Rome. On the left a portrait of the Pope reigning at the time, Pius XI and on the right is the Porta Santa (the Holy Door) which is only opened during a Holy Year (Jubilee), which occurs every 25 years. On the first day of a holy year, the Pope strikes the brick wall with a silver hammer and opens it to the pilgrims. The message imparted by the Holy Door is that God's mercy reaches out to mankind's frailty. At the back of this memento there are three small prayers dedicated to the Blessed Sacrament. This image is a memento of the First Solemn Mass by the Augustinian Fr Michele Giorgio Mizzi at Notabile. Overleaf, there is also a quote from the Manual of St Augustine.
