Marsh\'s Psalms extracted from The Old and New Versions for the use of The Parish Church at Marylebone, printed for William Marsh, 137 Oxford Street, 1929. And on the next page, London: printed by Brettell, Rupert Street, Haymarket,\" 99 pages. It is rare; I can\'t find another copy listed anywhere save in private or special collections. I saw no other copies for sale. (Note cover is not as dark as it appears in main photo -- cover shows best in second photo, and one with the ruler.). Book is about 6\" x 4\".
St. Marylebone had a centuries-long history with the affluent before the church was rebuilt in the same location as its predecessor shortly before this book was published in 1929. Lord Byron was baptized there, Charles Dickins went to this church, and the Robert and Elizabeth Barrett Browning were married there. It sits in a fashionable area for the Regency ton -- in Central London between Hyde Park and Regents Park in the City of Westminster.
