The appearings of Christ and their purpose [drop title] by Peterson, P. Alfred - 1930

Alvarado, Minn: Maranatha Tract Mission, 1930. 8vo, pp. 8; self-wrappers; short tear along previous fold, pages uniformly toned, else very good and sound. Peterson appears to have been the editor of a the Alvarado-based Baptist journal "Maranatha," as well as two collections of Christmas tracts. The 1940 census lists a P. Alfred Peterson, born in Sweden in 1886, and currently residing in Alvarado, Minnesota with a wife and 5-year-old son. The author's foreign origins would most likely explain the use of the non-existent word "Appearings" in the title. This monograph on the appearances of Christ appears to be unrecorded, with no holdings in OCLC, COPAC, or the Minnesota Historical Society as of July, 2014.
