Songs of the Soul

Boston: Sat Sanga, 1923. First Edition. Very Good. First edition, first printing. Signed by Paramhansa Yogananda and inscribed to a former owner, Mrs. [Camilla] Tedrow. 106 pp. Bound in publisher's orange pebbled cloth ruled in blind with titles stamped in gilt. Very Good. Corners bumped. Cloth toned at spine, lightly stained affecting bottom inner page corners throughout. Evidence of bookplate removal from front paste down, and former owner rubber stamp there as well; two small areas of excess paper residue to front free endpaper. A collection of mystical poetry, published just three years after Yogananda founded the Self-Realization Fellowship. Scarce in the first edition, and even more so signed.
