An early, nicely illustrated Antique Family Bible published by Lippincott in Philadelphia working closely together with Bagster in London. Well preserved  embossed leather covers and spine (with texts: "Holy Bible" and Bagster Lippincott Edition") and gold-gilt pages. Various full page engravings throughout the Bible. As per the title page: " ...The Authorized Version with the various readings and marginal notes usually printed therewith, A General Introduction, containing disquisitions on the genuineness, authenticity, and inspiration of the Holy Scriptures; various divisions and marks of distinction in the sacred writings; ancient versions; coins, weights and measures various sects among the Jews; Introductions and Concluding remarks to each book; the Parallel Passages contained in Canne's Bible ... Rev. J. Brown's Self-Interpreting Bible ... the English Version of Bagster's Polyglott Bible, systematically arranged: Philological and Explanatory Notes...An analysis and Compendium of the Holy Scriptures; A Chronological Index...an Index of Subjects contained in the Old and New Testaments and an index to the notes, introductions and concluding remarks ... 1856" 

In between the Testaments is an unmarked - not used Family Register

This Bible is in an overall VERY GOOD condition. It can  be used and opened easily (as a daily reader) as its bindings and the spine/covers have been professionally restored. There is NO writing on any of the pages. There are NO ripped or missing pages. There is some foxing, especially in the first 20 pages or so of the Bible, but nothing that disrupts the reading of the text. There is some slight wear to the edges of the covers and areas on the leather.
