First edition. - "In Rome, parallel to the early Maronite enterprise there was an effort by the Press of the SCPF to print for another Catholic Syriac church, the Chaldean church. For this enterprise, it was necessary to print in the Eastern script. The Press of the SCPF made two attempts at this script, the first (with no vowels) in 1633 (R. Bellarmino, 'Dottrina Christiana') and the second, a more practical type with vowel points cast on, around 1767. That is the date of a large and beautiful Chaldean missal." (Coakley pp. 103-104). - Latin title with old stamp of a Jesuit library. - Syriac titel with tear.
