THE HOLY BIBLE CONTAINING THE OLD TESTAMENT AND THE NEW: TRANSLATED OUT OF THE ORIGINAL TONGUES AND WITH THE FORMER TRANSLATIONS DILIGENTLY COMPARED AND REVISED.
Cambridge: Printed by John Baskerville Printer to the University 1763. 573 leaves. Royal folio. Full contemporary blue-black morocco faded to emerald spine gilt extra narrow gilt borders on boards marbled endsheets a.e.g. Fore-corners bumped joints a bit worn but not cracked lower fore- corners of several leaves exhibit an old ink stain with old mends to two corners but otherwise an attractive copy. The Baskerville Bible one of the highpoints of the imprint and indeed of all English Bible-making was printed in an edition of 1250 copies priced at four guineas. This copy of what Dibdin declared "one of the most beautifully printed books in the world" has the subscribers list in the third state concluding with the entry for Charles York. Such an ambitious undertaking stretched Baskerville's finances to their limits and of necessity in 1768 he remaindered 556 copies to the London bookseller R. Baldwin at 36s each. As late as 1771 Baldwin was advertising copies in sheets in the BIRMINGHAM GAZETTE priced at 3 guineas. "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 p.464. This is a very interesting association copy having been the family Bible in the 18th and 19th centuries of the S.L. Galton family and descendants with extensive records in manuscript on two preliminary blanks recording such events as the marriage of Frances Ann Violetta Darwin daughter of Erasmus Darwin and aunt of Charles Darwin to Samuel Tertius Galton and the birth in 1822 of Francis Galton -- the originator of the 'school' of Eugenics explorer meteorologist psychologist and a central figure in the development of the use of fingerprints as a means of identification. There are two bookplates of the Galton family on the front pastedown and another. GASKELL 26. DARLOW & MOULE 857. RUMBALL & PETRIE 145.

A rare deluxe printing on silk a poem written to celebrate the birth on 24 June 1818 of Karl Alexander the second son of the Grand Duchess Maria Pavlovna of Russia 1786-1859 and Karl Friederich Grand Duke of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach 1783-1853. Maria Pavlovna was the third daughter of Tsar Paul I 1754-1801. Maria Pavlovna was raised at her father's palaces at Pavlovsk and Gatchina. Karl Alexander later inherited his father's title. In 1804 Maria Pavlovna met and married Karl Friedrich in St. Petersburg while he was on a grand tour of Europe. In Weimar she became a great patron of art and music and the sciences and took a serious interest in the social welfare of the inhabitants of the Grand-Duchy. She took courses at the University of Jena several of which were taught by Alexander von Humboldt. Franz Liszt was appointed her Kapellmeister following his retirement from the concert stage. Goethe considered Maria Pavlovna one of the worthiest women of his time. A fine copy preserved in a slip-case. hardcover books
