1867711New York: American Bible Society 1867. 3/4 cloth. Very Good . 12 1/2 x 15 1/2 inches. Folio. 1 872 974 leaves. Printed in raised letters for the blind. Tears to upper margin of front endpapers and edges lightly soiled. Bound in contemporary 3/4 black leather and black cloth which is worn at edges. A scarce early American edition of its kind. In the late 18th and early 19th centuries several decades before the widespread adoption of Braille printers and educators in France and Britain began developing a variety of tactile reading systems for the visually impaired making independent reading among the blind possible for the first time in history. The results of an important competition at the Royal Society of Arts in Edinburgh in 1832 inspired the American activist Samuel Gridley Howe to research and develop his own embossed reading system for the blind which emerged in 1835 as "Boston Line Type." Drawing upon the methods of James Gall an entrant in the Edinburgh competition Howe created an alphabet of angular raised roman letters that "was said to be far less bulky and therefore less expensive than contemporary European roman-letter systems" PRINTING HISTORY p. 20. With the aid of a $1000 grant from the American Bible Society Howe purchased the first printing press for the New England Institution for the Education of the Blind today the Perkins School for the Blind and produced the country's first complete raised-letter Bible for the American Bible Society in 1842. The present Book of Psalms appears to have been printed with the first complete Howe-ABS Bible retaining the pagination of that production and was published separately with a new title page. ABS had published Selections of Psalms in 1835 and the Pennsylvania Institution for the Instruction of the Blind a Psalms and Hymns in 1840 and 1848 this is a very early edition of the Psalms.

The Magdalen Hospital was established in 1758 later renamed Magdalen Hospital for the Reception of Penitent Prostitutes it provided a refuge and a place where prostitutes could be treated and cared for. The women wore a uniform of light grey dresses and in their whole dress plain and neat. They were instructed in reading and the principles of Christian religion. They were employed in needlework or house-keeping according to their abilities. They made household linens of all kinds shirts shifts knitting mending and learned domestic work to qualify them for service From banksidethenandnow. The Asylum was also established in 1758 mainly due to the efforts of John Fielding brother of Henry. These Psalm / Hymn books were presumably published in order to raise funds. Reprint.

Joseph Milligan was Thomas Jefferson's longtime Georgetown bookseller. When Congress agreed to purchase Jefferson’s library Milligan went to Jefferson’s Monticello home to inventory and appraise the collection. He also supervised its packing and transportation to Washington.

Lord Mayor of Liverpool from 1791-1792 and 1793-1794 with Maggs 4/12/24. <br /> <br /> The work of an imitator of this binder greatly inferior in technical ability is found on a copy of the 1790 Oxford New Testament in the British Library C108c28 which is reproduced in the BL Bookbindings Database. <br /> <br /> The names of early Liverpool bookbinders are few but we have located two of them in Gore's 1766 "Liverpool Directory" namely Peter Wright on Bixteth Street and Richard Wright on George Street. The work of the present binder was not within the scope of Ramsden's "Bookbinders of the United Kingdom Outside London 1780-1840. It would appear that the Wrights continued working in Liverpool for some time. According to Ramsden the name Richard Wright appears in the 1777 and 1781 directories and Peter Wright in the 1790 directory. In the 1793 records of burials at Our Lady and St Nicholas Liverpool a certain William Wright is listed as a bookbinder on Sweeting Street.<br /> <br /> ¶ This edition of the Psalms is scarce: ESTC T206585 lists only 5 copies worldwide none in America.
