16670625R1APrinted by the Assigns of John Bill and Christopher Barker In the Savoy London: . 1667 Further details - Bound with: The New Testament - In the Savoy London: Printed by the Assigns of John Bill and Christopher Barker 1667 - Bound with: The Whole Book of Psalms: Collected into English Metre by Thomas Sternhold John Hopkins and others. Cambridge: Printed by John Field 1662. Ca. 500 p. Double column text ruled in red throughout. All edges gilt. Small 8vo. 170 x 120 mm. Very good. Contemporary full dark goat skin leather blind tooled English full somber binding. Early marbled endpapers. A very good example of a sombre binding ca. 1667. The covers are blind tooled in a handsome frame and panel design that includes small acorns stars flowers and vines. The same elements appear on the spine compartments between five raised bands. The richness of the tooling on the binding is effectively disguised by this `black on black' work. Some scholars say that these were most popular in Puritan London where ostentation was frowned upon. But most of these sombre bindings appear after the restoration of King Charles II and reflect the royal court's encouragement of public and private displays of mourning for the beheading of his father King Charles I. Their use on liturgical books also accelerates after the Great Plague of 1665; and disastrous London Fire a year later. The timing of its use on this particular example certainly illustrates those influences. References: Wing 2nd ed.
