A
vintage, antique Holman's edition of 1874 illustrated family Holy
Bible. Remarkable nice condition (embossed/gold gilt, raised
decoration and gold embossed along the edge) cover and clean pages
(gold gilt edges). As per the title page: "HOLMAN'S EDITION. The
HOLY BIBLE Translated Out of THE ORIGINAL TONGUES and with THE FORMER TRANSLATIONS DILIGENTLY COMPARED AND REVISED
with the APOCRYPHA, CONCORDANCE and PSALMS.". The family
register records the history of the Goff and Markham family going back
to 1838.
 
This
Bible is in a overall VERY GOOD condition. There are NO ripped or missing
pages, just a slight occasional light stains/browning of the paper as
to be expected. No writing (except for the family pages and the
dedication in the front). The hinges are in a good condition and not split. There is
some wear to the edges of the covers and areas on the leather.
