Description

Intended to be used at Christmas time, this broadside provides the texts for a selection of fourteen popular carols that was not otherwise available in a hymnal. The inexpensive and ephemeral nature of the broadside is underlined by the low quality of the paper, the uneven inking of the types, and the printer's use of stock woodcuts of questionable relevance to the Christmas carol lyrics.
