First American edition, and first edition in English, limited to 600 copies signed and numbered by the artist, of which this is number 107. The longest and best-selling of Masereel's wordless novels, consisting of 176 captionless woodcut prints, My Book of Hours tells of the experiences of an early 20-century everyman in a modern city. An important precursor to the graphic novel.

Light wear and rubbin to boards, with a minor scratch to top edge of text block. Owner's bookplate to verso of front board, else internally clean. Scarce, particularly in this condition.
