1638022099Cambridge: Thomas Buck and Roger Daniel 1638. . Your chance to own a complete Bible apart from one leaf printed only 27 years after the King James Version first came out - a huge one 15 inches tall similar to the pictures you may have seen of original 1611 editions. Hinges and extremities have wear and tear and clasps are missing. Early and late pages have furrows perhaps suggesting moisture issues long ago. A few small holes to pages appear to have been caused by rust and therefore presumably contamination of the paper by specks of ferrous metal. There are no extra materials apart from the translators' addresses to King James and to the reader at the front and the Apocrypha located between the Old and New Testaments. No endpapers - inside of front cover has old stamps of Thomas Garbutt Linen and Woollen Draper Barnard Castle likely from 100 or more years ago. The date of 1638 which is printed on the NT title page has also been added in an old but plain style in black pen at the bottom of the illustrated main title page which is a bit worn and grubby. Page 611-612 middle of Hosea is missing seeming at first glance not to have been present but in fact some tiny fragments do appear at the spine. The last page of text is dilapidated but the text of it seems near complete. Some old repairs have been made to borders of pages by pasting on paper which mostly seems of a similar nature to the original and in general when doing this care seems to have been taken not to obscure the text. The exterior is not elaborate but has a 3 inch long rhombus shaped area of gilt decoration to the middle of each of the two boards; there is no lettering or decoration to the spine. There are pictorial drop initials at the beginning of each book of the Bible and Apocrypha. This specific printing is said to have remained the standard text until the printing of Dr Paris' Cambridge edition of 1762. Leather. Average. Folio - over 12" - 15" tall.

1785173867Bath: printed by R. Cruttwell; and sold by Rivingtons' Dilly Robson & Robinsons' 1785. With three Biblical fore edge paintings An imposing Bible handsomely bound by Edwards of Halifax in their celebrated "Etruscan" style. The set is unusual in featuring motifs relevant to the contents on all three fore-edges - scenes from the Old and New Testaments - as opposed to the more typical landscapes. Edwards famously almost never signed their bindings and their style was very frequently reproduced by others. This set is cited by Weber in his Annotated Dictionary of Fore-Edge Paintings as "a notable Bible from the Edwards bindery" Weber 2010 p. 118-9 and it is used as an example in a chapter devoted to distinguishing genuine Edwards bindings and paintings from imitations. The technique of concealing a painting under the gilt fore edge of books was revived in England by William Edwards about 1780. "The Edwards family not only carried on the art but enlarged it from the mainly floral and heraldic early efforts with occasional religious scenes and royal portraits to embrace views of well-known country houses set in landscapes" Marks p. 194. They were the originators of the bucolic English fore-edge painting which became standard in the 19th century. Scholars believe that the paintings were made in Halifax rather than in London by artists both within and outside the family and under the supervision of Thomas Edwards. Inspiration for the images was taken from various sources often engravings appearing in other books; for landscapes the favourite artist was William Gilpin a pioneer of the "picturesque". Volume I features a moment from Genesis: Abraham welcoming three angels into his home an act of hospitality which moved the Lord to bless Abraham and his wife with a son despite she was far beyond childbearing age. On Volume II is an episode from Exodus: an Egyptian princess and her attendants discover the infant Moses in the bulrushes of the Nile. Volume III displays an animated scene from the life of St. Paul as he preaches in Rome. The "Etruscan" style binding with a border of palmettes and other classical ornaments stencilled in black on brown calf was one of the firm's most popular designs. The origin of this style is debated: some 19th-century writers attributed the invention to John Whitaker while others ascribe it to the Edwards firm. It is known that Edwards employed it from at least 1775. Provenance: a Herman Frasch Whiton probably the American sailor and Olympic champion 1904-1967 with his elaborately designed bookplate featuring his arms and a ship on the verso of an initial blank in each volume. b Randall J.

"Always regarded as Baskerville's magnum opus and his most magnificent as well as his most characteristic specimen" - Reed A History of the Old English Letter Foundries p. 279. "One of the most beautifully printed books in the world." - Dibden. "Aesthetically the highest point in English Bible printing so far was John Baskerville's folio printed at Cambridge in 1763. The Bible uses his types paper and ink and shows his characteristic 'machine-made' finish: very smooth and even in color and impression with glossy black ink on smooth paper. The design is traditional but the quality of material and workmanship is so high and the conventions are so delicately modified and consistently applied that the result is extremely impressive" Cambridge History of the Bible 464. <br> This is an oversized or heavy book which requires additional postage for international delivery outside the US.
