MATINS AND VESPERS; being songs and prayers of the daily orisons written by Violet M. Firth for the glory of God and the comfort of men.

First edition, first printing. Publisher's original printed wrappers, sewn at the spine. Small oblong octavo. 16 un-numbered pages printed in blue, red and black. A very good copy, the covers a little rubbed and marked with small chips to the edges of rear wrapper. Small date stamp of Aug 2 1911 to the rear wrapper. A decent copy of a very fragile production.

"Published by Paul Elder and Company and printed for them by their Tomoyé Press under the direction of John Henry Nash, at their Shop in the City of San Francisco, which lieth at the Gateway to the Golden West." [from the inner rear wrapper]. The author's rare third book. OCLC World Cat. locates just seven copies, all in the US; Copac locates none.
