Old printed Armenian religious document

[bell-the-cat]

Anyone know what this poster was issued for? It's probably from the late 19th century. Has lots of religious symbols on it (plus just about every fancy Armenian typeface the printer had in stock).

It's the Lord's Prayer in (Classical) Armenian.

Thanks. The weirdly-large number of typefaces used on it caught my eye - at one bit of it there are even three placed on top of each other.

Maybe it was intended to be some sort of protective object, like a talisman or charm. It's on ebay, 80 dollars and rising.
