Description:
[Mexico, 1825. Very good.. Small broadside, approximately 8x6 inches. Light, even tanning and mild dust soiling. Minor loss at upper right corner, not affecting text. Untrimmed. Attractive, illustrated verse broadside that praises the Virgin of Guadalupe for delivering independence to the Mexican people. Printed within a woodcut border on the sheet are a woodcut of the Virgin and a sonnet, whose initial stanza reads, " Quíen sino tú, dulcísima María, / Libró con mano fuerte al Mexícano / del acero feróz de su Paisano, / Qué cual á un estrangero lo veía?" The Virgin of Guadalupe became associated with the cause of Mexican independence following the use of her image on the banners of the insurgent army raised by Father Miguel Hidalgo in 1810. An interesting confluence of Mexican verse, revolutionary sentiment, and popular piety, with only a small handful of copies in OCLC.

Description:
Puebla: Reimpreso por Pedro N. Alarcon, 1892. Good plus.. [4],201,[1]pp. 12mo. Original quarter sheep and pebbled cloth, spine blind tooled and gilt lettered. Extensive, contemporary gift inscription on front free endpaper verso. Light edge wear, spine and boards well rubbed. Initial gathering coming loose. Moderate tanning and scattered foxing. Second edition, after the first of 1835, of this extensive bilingual catechism on the "principal mysteries of our holy faith." The question-and-answer text, printed in Spanish and Nahuatl on facing pages provides basic explanations of the central tenets and practices of Catholicism. The present copy bears an inscription from Mexican theologian and polymath Agustin Rivera to a friend and fellow teacher at the Liceos de Padre Guerra in Lagos de Moreno, Bernardo Reyna. Rivera published many religious, historical, and pedagogical texts in Lagos, many for use in his school and on the subjects of native culture and history.

Description:
[Mexico City]: Imprenta de M. Murguia y Ca, 1852. Very good.. Broadsheet, 12.75 x 9.25 inches. Previously folded. One very short separation and minor loss along horizontal fold line. Very light dust soiling and toning. A rare broadsheet presenting the efforts and goals of the Bishop of Nancy to Mexican Catholics regarding his urgent requirement to rescue infidel children from China and other "idolater" countries. The sheet presents the suffering and needs of the innocents, going into great detail on the supposed barbaric practices of China, describing the many ways unchristian people kill children such as drowning them in buckets of hot water, feeding them to dogs or pigs, and throwing them into rivers tied to pumpkins. The document begins: "Arrebatar de las garras de la muerte un sin número de criaturas, hijos de padres infieles, que el capricho y la miseria, la superstición y la más horrible y desnaturalizada barbarie hace morir a centenares y a millares, arrojados a los rios y en el mar, y… Read More

Description:
Mexico City, 1807. Very good.. Letterpress broadside illustrated with large engraving, 12 x 8.25 inches. Minor wear and foxing, engraving printed slightly off register. An evocative and rare Mexican broadside relating the story of Italian Jesuit Francesco de Geronimo (1642-1716). The portrait was executed by Francisco Gordillo, also the chief assayer of the Mexico City mint. This broadside was produced the year following Francesco's beatification in 1806; he was later canonized as a saint in 1839. This "Very Light Sketch of the Life of Francisco" includes a biographical history of Geronimo, as well as a physical description and information on his beatification and burial. "St. Francis wanted to be sent to preach in the Far East but the Jesuit authorities wanted him to stay in Naples, which was the centre of his apostolic labours. He worked through the 'Oratorio delle Missioni,' an organization of working men which functioned as a sickness benefit and funeral society. His preaching was famous:… Read More

Description:
Mexico City: En la Imprenta de D. Felipe de Zuniga y Ontiveros, 1775. About very good.. [6],118pp. Contemporary limp vellum. Fore-edges binding and text block darkened by smoke, with markings creeping into margins of several leaves including title page. Light dampstaining along lower edge, somewhat heaver on final leaves. An unusual Mexican religious primer, with teachings based on the doctrines of St. Bonaventure but adapted to the practices of the Franciscan Order. The work was created for Franciscan novices, and sets forth rules and orders for various offices, duties, and other responsibilities, as well as standard beliefs and practices for the order. This is the second edition, with the first having been printed over fifty years earlier in 1721. Both were likely printed in small numbers, being intended for the rather limited audience of Franciscan novices. The present copy belonged to Henry Ward Poole, the noted American engineer and collector of Mexicana, with his manuscript initials and shelf… Read More

[Mexico, 1760. Very good plus.. [3]pp., on a bifolium, completed in manuscript. Contemporary ink signatures and original paper seal at bottom left of first leaf recto; extensive manuscript notations on second leaf. Previously folded; light edge wear and creasing. Minor tanning and soiling. An attractively illustrated and scarce example of a confraternity patent for a religious order in mid-18th century Mexico.

The text on this page prints the principal benefits of membership, which include assistance with all burial rites… Read More

Description:
[Mexico City, 1876. About very good.. Twenty-four pamphlets in one volume, with paginations as noted below. 16mo. Rebound in modern pebbled calf, with original gilt leather spine laid down. Moderate tanning and some dust soiling. Five works lacking title pages. An extensive sammelband of nearly twenty-five scarce novenas, triduas, prayer books, and other devotionals printed in Mexico during the 19th century. At least sixteen of the imprints emanate from the presses of the Abadiano y Valdez publishing family, which held a prominent role in the production of popular devotional works across the 1800s. The most prolific of these printers was Luis Abadiano y Valdez, who published a number of educational and political works, but the vast majority of his output was religious, and the present sammelband provides a good representation of some of his scarcer imprints produced in the 1840s and 1850s. Also included in this tract volume are a sizable number of imprints by his successor, Francisco Abadiano, who… Read More
