Description
1795 1ed Early American German BIBLE Hymnal Psalter Ephrata Pennsylvania Mayer
A rare and highly desirable 18th-century German psalter published in Ephrata, Pennsylvania. Early American printings of German texts are exceedingly rare, and this psalter is no exception. Ephrata was not known for its printing with the exception of German publisher Salomon Mayer whose liturgical hymnals and German religious texts are still popular today. Very few Ephrata-printed works are found available today, in fact, no examples of this hymnal are found and only one other 18th-century example of any Ephrata published book is found for sale elsewhere!
