MAY BLOSSOMS FROM THE ROCKY MOUNTAINS IN HONOR OF THE B. MOTHER OF GOD. Scarce devotional imprint from the St. Ignatius missionary press in Montana. "The 'May Blossoms' of the title were 'little printed slips of different color, or short readings, each containing a practical suggestion, a little something, to be compiled with as an act of devotion toward the Blessed Mother of God.' (p.5) These printed slips, none of which seems to have survived, are lost imprints from the St. Ignatius Press" - Schoenberg. The text present here is an explanation of the manner in which the slips are to be used. Scarce, with only three copies located in OCLC, at Yale, Princeton, and Washington State University.
