1965513160Cambridge University Press 1965. Leather. NEAR FINE. A very nice mid-century printing of the coveted Turquoise setting on India Paper printed at the Bentley House in London. vi 1184 361pp.; 125 concordance color lithograph maps and gazeteer. Large 8vo Smyth-sewn binding with overcast stitching in hand-grained Morocco goatskin leather with leather liner; all edges gilt gilt stamped spine lettering two place ribbons. Owner's imprinted name scratched off; some trivial scuffing to the gilt very faint dampstains to just a few pages; otherwise an uncommonly nice copy with little evidence of use--no markings blank dedication pages very clean and bright pages and tight sound binding. One of the most sought-after settings of the KJV the Cambridge Turquoise is prized for its boldness and clarity of it's large font especially when printed on the older 'India Paper' makes for one of the most eminently legible personal Bibles -- readable from a distance of several feet. While the goatskin leather is very nice the key to the value of this printing is the paper. The excellence of the India Paper of this era the likes of which has not been produced since the 70's is hard to overstate. Decades of research and development by Oxford and Cambridge went into producing this astounding combination of thinness strenght and opacity. Cambridge University Press unknown
