PEARLS OF PRAYER.

N.p Benziger Brothers (1880) 202 pp. Includes a frontispiece depicting the crucifixion, reproduced from a photograph, as well as the imprimatur of the Archbishop of New York. The exact place of publication of this handsome volume is unclear, as the publisher indicates offices in New York, Cincinnati, and Chicago. Bondy notes that they also published books in Switzerland, and used their ties to the aforementioned U.S. cities to make connections to German-speaking Americans. Nevertheless, this volume, which includes prayers for specific occasions, is in English. Bound in black leather with title and Cross gilt-stamped on cover. A.e.g. Also with "Adelaide '09." painted on cover in gold, presumably by a previous owner. (Bondy p. 133). (2 3/16 x 1 7/16; 56x37mm.).
