Catalog from exhibit at the Triton Museum, University of Santa Clara, California. Signed Don Ward (historian/folklorist Donald Ward). Indigenous beliefs meet Catholicism in this uniquely Mexican (and Mexican American) celebration akin to Halloween. Skeletons and death imagery abound in alters and cemetery offerings as well as candy skulls, skeleton toys, and other images that are intended to bring the dead back into the land of the living for a brief period of time.

Item Condition: Used Acceptable. The paperback cover has some wear and lays slightly unevenly. The pages are clean and in good condition. The binding is very secure. Good reading copy.
