This single-page production, printed in double-column format in Roman and italic types, shows a mid-18th-century change to the Catholic marriage service, and is essentially a cancel to be inserted into the liturgy book. The place and date of publication are based on typography and watermark. This scarce example of job printing for the church in Mexico is not located by the standard bibliographies, and OCLC locates only one copy, at the Bridwell Library.
