Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. Hardcover. A rare book of verses and Biblical quotes from the California poet Frances Oettel (1912-1973). It was apparently self-published and reproduces handwritten pages of the verses that she called psalms. A stated first printing numbered "191" in ink on the rear pastedown above a stamp with a Chico California address. The bi-fold pages are loose within a green pebbled cloth hard cover folder with title and author on an orange paper label affixed to the front cover. Fading to edges of covers. There are four delicate color illustrations depicting a tree as it appears each season. Inserted is a letter dated 1970 that seems to refer to the writer although with a different last name, saying that her book took years of effort. A charming and very personal book from this religious writer. In very good condition. Unpaginated [86 pages]. PRI/020118.
