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 operated the press in the 1860s and 1870s, only one of which is recorded by OCLC, as well two earlier scarce imprints produced in the 1820s and 1830s by their predecessor, Alejandro Valdez. In all, a very interesting concatenation of scarce Mexican devotional works from the 19th century. A complete list of imprints contained in the present volume is as follows:
