The Holy Bible. Containing the Old Testament and the New: Newly Translated out of the originall Tongues and with the former translations diligently compared and revised by his Majesties special command. Appointed to be read in Churches
Cambridge: Printed by Tho: and John Buck printers to the University of Cambridge 1629. The first King James Bible printed at Cambridge a model of fine editing introducing nearly 500 changes that have become standard. Contemporary red morocco stamped decoratively in gilt with a seven-paneled elaborately gilt-tooled spine and gilt turns-ins. All edges gilt. Marbled endpapers. . Small folio. Elaborate wood-engraved architectural title-page woodcut headbands initial letters and tail-pieces. Text in double columns. Separate plain title-page for the New Testament. Binding extremities have some slight wear and minor soiling. Gilt is slightly faded. Very minor foxing light browning and the occasional small stain sometimes touching text. Small hole to outer margin of Hhh4 not affecting text. Small hole to lower margin of Rrr6 not affecting text. Former bookseller's ticket on verso of front flyleaf. Contemporary ink inscription on recto of preliminary blank. A very good copy in a remarkable binding in a quarter calf clamshell box. Cambridge began to print the Bible in the Geneva version in 1558 under a charter granted by Henry VIII in 1534. The Cambridge Geneva Bible appeared in 1691. Meanwhile in London Christopher Barker had acquired a virtual monopoly in Bible printing by virtue of his patent as Royal printer granted in 1577. In seeking to break that monopoly Cambridge University Press and the Bucks insisted that they had the means to produce far better edited editions of the Bible in their university town. In 1628 Charles I ratified Henry VIII's charter and this Bible was the first publication produced after that act. It was indeed significantly more accurate than the Barker editions of the King James Bible and it began a Cambridge tradition of care for the text. "Another motive probably contributed to the quality of the Bible issued by Thomas and John Buck printers to the University of Cambridge. Cambridge was making a claim to printing and editorial quality beyond anything their London rivals could produce. Part of this implicit claim was embodied in its conspicuously modern appearance. Roman type by itself was nothing new but the use of u v J and occasionally apostrophes was.The editors made more changes to the text than any other set of editors. By my count counts of this sort always have an element of roughness they introduced 221 readings of which 199 became standard. In terms of frequency this is roughly one new reading every five chapters. They also confirmed a further 59 variants from the first edition found in some of the earlier editions. The spelling of the names is largely but not entirely a scholastic matter. They introduced 178 spellings of which 157 have become standard and they confirmed a further 34. Overall 493 changes were made of which 447 91% became standard." Norton A Textual History of the King James Bible pp. 83-84. Printed by Tho: and John Buck, printers to the University of Cambridge unknown

I engraved vignettes on general title and New Testament title engraved head- and tail-piece vignettes and engraved initials. Contemporary black panelled morocco gilt the covers with gilt roll-tooled borders around a series of concentric gilt panels with ornamental leafy sprays and corner-pieces central lozenge gilt composed of similar small tooling spines richly gilt in nine compartments morocco lettering piece in the second compartment gilt dentelles marbled endpapers and gilt edges discreet expert repairs at top and bottom of joints Provenance: Sir John Hynde Cotton armorial bookplate; William Charles Smith armorial bookplate; Maggs Bros. catalogue 1212 Bookbinding in the British Isles item 86 First edition of the monumental splendidly illustrated "Vinegar Bible" -- a "magnificent edition" Darlow & Moule here ruled in red and handsomely bound. Commonly known as the "Vinegar Bible" from the misprint "the parable of the vinegar" for "vineyard" in the headline above Luke Chapter 20. While a contemporary lambasted Baskett for this and other typographical errors in the text calling it a "Baskett-ful of errors" Oxford historian of printing Harry Carter states that "only Baskerville's Bible is its equal among English Bibles for beauty of type impression and paper" The History of the Oxford University Press 1975 I p. 171 In 1709 John Baskett purchased the exclusive royal patent to print Bibles in England control of which his family retained until 1799. This magnificent edition of the Bible is among Baskett's most important works highly regarded for its large elegant type; its 60 striking copper-engraved vignette head- and tailpieces; and its many delicately engraved historiated initials. Two distinct varieties occur. This copy is Darlow & Moule's issue A with additional engraved general title page depicting Moses writing the first words of Genesis here bound as frontispiece; vignette view of Oxford on the general title page; and vignette title page for New Testament depicting the Annunciation dated 1716. The present example is noted for both its lovely contemporary black morocco gilt binding and for being ruled in red throughout. Similar bindings on this edition of the bible are noted in both the Wardington Collection and in Mirjam Foot's Studies in the History of Bookbinding p. 409. Darlow & Moule 735; Herbert 942.

BIBLE IN ENGLISH. THE MACKLIN BIBLE
THE HOLY BIBLE. THE OLD TESTAMENT EMBELLISHED WITH ENGRAVINGS FROM PICTURES AND DESIGNS BY THE MOST EMINENT ENGLISH ARTISTS with: THE NEW TESTAMENT. and: THE APOCRYPHA
London: T. Bensley for T. Macklin final volume Bensley for T. Cadell & W. Davies 1800 for the six volumes of the Bible 1816 for the Apocrypha. First Printing of this Edition. 484 x 390 mm. 19 x 15 1/4". Seven volumes comprising the regular Bible in six volumes and the Apocrypha very often not included as a seventh volume. First Printing of this Edition. Once splendid contemporary black straight-grain morocco gilt covers framed by Greek key roll palmette roll and multiple gilt rules double raised bands spine compartments densely gilt with rows of alternating star and circlet tools gilt titling turn-ins with gilt chain roll purple endpapers all edges gilt some inexpert but not obvious repairs to joints and backstrips. With more than 100 allegorical headpieces and tailpieces and some 70 SPLENDID LARGE-FOLIO SIZE COPPER PLATES after Fuseli Reynolds West and others. Herbert 1442 and 1651. Extremities rather rubbed boards a bit scuffed but the decorative contemporaneous bindings solid and not without appeal. Plates somewhat foxed mostly to margins mild to moderate offsetting from plates occasional mild offsetting in the text bed but still a fresh wide-margined copy. The most prodigious form of scripture in English ever published the Macklin Bible features very large and bold type fine Whatman paper and a series of engravings by some of the most celebrated artists of the period. Like the Boydell "Shakespeare Gallery" also printed by Bensley our Macklin Bible is a vast picture book with illustrations that are grand both in size and emotional impact. According to DNB Macklin 1752/3-1800 announced his intention to produce a lavishly illustrated luxuriously produced folio Bible in 1789 and he spent the next 11 years and �30000 making his dream a reality. His efforts paid off: "the subscription list for 703 copies at �46 1s. apiece was headed by the king the queen and the prince of Wales." Sadly Macklin died just five days after the last engraving was finished and did not live to see his masterpiece become one of the most acclaimed English Bibles. As DNB observes "The Macklin Bible endures as the most ambitious edition produced in Britain often pirated but never rivalled." The present copy has the additional distinction of containing what amounts to an extra volume: the Macklin Bible most often appears in the marketplace without the Apocrypha appearing here as volume VII which was not issued until 16 years after the others. Copies of the Macklin Bible were often put into ornate bindings as was the present set; despite the depradations of time the workmanship of a superior London binder remains apparent. T. Bensley for T. Macklin [final volume Bensley for T. Cadell & W. Davies] unknown

Unlike the vast majority of famous 16th and 17th century British Bibles which are typically subjected to frequent use this is an especially well-preserved and appealing copy of the first printing of the first Roman Catholic Bible in English. Translated between September 1578 and July 1580 by Gregory Martin 1542-82 the Rheims New Testament borrowed freely from earlier English versions particularly Coverdale's diglot of 1537 but Herbert tells us it "adheres very closely to the Latin . . . and it exerted a very considerable influence on the King James Bible of 1611 transmitting to it not only an extensive vocabulary but also numerous distinctive phrases and turns of expression." According to Pforzheimer the Rheims translation was "issued by the Roman Church only as a last resort in order to provide its communicants who insisted on a vernacular text with a version not distinctly Protestant both in translation and in marginal comment." DNB notes that "The appearance of a Catholic Bible in English undermined traditional protestant criticism that the Roman church kept scripture out of the hands of the laity. Instead protestant theologians such as Thomas Cartwright William Whitaker and William Fulke attacked the credentials of the translators and denounced their work as filled with error. Despite such criticism revised versions of Martin's translation remained extremely popular throughout the English-speaking world for nearly four hundred years." Much controversy arose from the extensive scathing commentary attacking Protestant interpretations of the scripture added to Martin's work by Richard Bristow; William Fulke was provoked to respond at length. Although the title page of our copy bears the intriguing inscription "Guillaume Harvey" chances are that it did not belong to the famous man of medicine 1578-1657 whose discovery of the circulation of the blood transformed medical science; attested examples of his signature show striking differences in the formation of the letters. No matter who the early William Harvey with an interest in Catholic scripture was his copy of this important edition of the New Testament has come down to us in particularly attractive condition.

Cloth soiled binding lightly shaken gilt rubbed else a very good copy. The date of publication is taken from the Advertisement page 4.

The accepted publicaton date for this Bible is 1818; three other known copies are known to have been issued either in quarter leather and marbled paper boards or in printed card covers. Our copy is in what is clearly publisher's cloth with gilt blocked on the upper board. This combination is unknown before 1826. It is likely then that the textblock while printed earlier was bound after 1826. Exceedingly scarce. Protected in a custom clamshell box. Oliver & Boyd hardcover books

Bible in English
A New Version of the Psalms of David. Fitted to the Tunes Used in Churches
Boston: Printed by Joseph Bumstead for David West 1790. pp. 358 2 ads. 1 vols. 12mo. Contemporary calf. Joints a bit tender; tiny chip at tail of spine. A beautiful unrestored copy and with Pierce family inscriptions on the endpapers. pp. 358 2 ads. 1 vols. 12mo. With unusual ownership painting on the endpaper identifying the Psalms as belonging to Benjamin Pierce's Book 1791 and depicting a man up a tree by way of ladder either to send apples to another man seated below or to read his psalms aloft in peace-- let the viewer be the judge! <br/><br/>The following leaf includes a calligraphic presentation in 1799 to James Pierce who notes its use by "the society in Brattle Square" which we take to mean the then Congregational and later c. 1805-1876 Unitarian Church on Brattle Street in Boston Massachusetts. <br/><br/>The church distinguished itself by its somewhat relaxed attitude toward rigid Calvinist practices and by iits array of important ministers: Benjamin Colman 1699-1747; William Cooper 1716-1743; Samuel Cooper 1747-1783; Peter Thacher 1785-1802; Joseph Stevens Buckminster 1805-1812; Edward Everett 1814-1815; John Gorham Palfrey 1813-1831; and Samuel Kirkland Lothrop 1834-1876. The parishioners were no less esteemed: John Hancock Samuel Adams Joseph Warren John Adams Abigail Adams Richard Clarke Elizabeth Greenleaf Jane Mecom John Lowell Lydia Hancock Henry Cabot Lodge James Bowdoin 1676-1747 and many others. Hans Gram played organ in the late 18th century. The Pierce family's early days in America perhaps coming as early as about 1620 were spent largely in New Hampshire and Massachusetts and their legacy includes Benjamin Pierce governor of New Hampshire 1827-1830 as well as ten generations spent in what is now an historic landmark of seventeenth-century architecture currently serving as a museum in Dorchester Massachusetts. It is difficult to place exactly which Benjamin Pierce and James Pierce this copy belonged to in the large and lively family. Evans 22351 Printed by Joseph Bumstead for David West unknown books

There is another state according to Herbert that is priced 4s. and is wanting the Apocrypha. It is possible that they sold the leaves with and without the Apocrypha thus the difference in price.

Holy Bible Abridged:
Very Rare Early American Edition of a ChildrenÃs Pocket Bible BIBLE IN ENGLISH. The Holy Bible Abridged: Or the History of the Old and New Testament. Illustrated with Notes and Adorned with Cuts. For the Use of Children. Two lines from Luke. Boston: Samuel Hall 1791. Early American edition and first Samuel Hall edition second Boston edition. There were only a total of five Children's bibles published in America before 1791. The First American edition was printed in Boston in 1782 by Robert Hodge for N. Coverly followed by a Worcester Massachusetts 1786 edition by Isaiah Thomas 1786 and 1788 Philadelphia editions and a 1790 New York edition. Our present copy was published the year after the New York edition. Thirtytwomo 4 1/8 x 2 3/4 inches; 104 x 67 mm. 4 vii-ix 8 18-173 1 pp. With frontispiece of Adam and Eve and fifty-nine crude but charming woodcuts illustrations depicting stories from the text meant to appeal to young children. The stories that have been abridged for use in this Bible generally consist of the more well- known stories which would be of interest to children such as Creation Adam & Eve and Jonah and the Whale from the Old Testament as well as the birth baptism and crucifixion of Jesus from the New Testament. Listed in Evans but not in Sabin. We could find no copies of this edition at auction and only one copy found at the Massachusetts Historical Society. All early American editions are rare and only two complete copies of the New York 1790 edition since 1976. There was the 1786 Worcester edition at auction in 2008 but it was incomplete. Contemporary marbled paper over boards repacked with matching paper. Inner hinges strengthened. Bound without endpapers. Some soiling and toning throughout. One leaf page 145 with some fraying to the edges not affecting text. Overall very good particularly for a childrenÃs book. The rarity of this book can somewhat be contributed to its very small size and that it was intended for the use of children. Something as delicate and tiny as this Bible in the hands of a child had little hope for a bright future. ìBy 1789 Bible story collections specifically for children had existed in the mother country for nearly a century an active market in the American colonies had not opened up. Neither American Protestants nor American Catholics of whom were growing in numbers seemed ready to give Bible stories to their children. In the 1780Ãs the American situation changed radically. Boston printers pirated NewberyÃs Holy Bible Abridged; in 1786 the astute Worcester printer Isaiah Thomas followed suit; and by 1815 The Holy Bible Abridged had been printed in urban and provincial print centers all over the America northeast.î The Bible for Children: From the Age of Gutenberg to the Present.

Illustrated with thirty full-page engravings by various artists including a frontispiece and a vignette title-page titled The Family Bible With Copious Notes and References two engravings by J. Stephens from photographs of the Holy Land by Frith and six engravings after John MartinÃs Old Testament illustrations ìThe Fall of Manî ìThe Destruction of Pharaoh's Hostî ìJoshua commanding the sun to stand stillî ìBy Babel's Streams We Sat and Weptî ìBelshazzar's Feastî and ìThe Fall of Ninevehî. Contemporary black polished calf over bevelled boards covers tooled in gilt and blind spine lettered and decoratively tooled in gilt in compartments. Gilt turn-ins marbled endpapers. All edges gilt. Minimal wear to extremities. Hinges neatly reinforced. A bright fresh copy throughout. Near fine. MartinÃs Biblical paintings are among the finest ever produced: ìThe spirit in which Martin worked is suggested by a passage in his catalogue for the large oil painting ëThe Fall of Ninevehà which he exhibited in lonely magnificence in 1827: ëThe mighty cities of Nineveh and Babylon have long since passed away. The accounts of their greatness and splendor may have been exaggerated. But where strict truth is not essential the mind is content to find delight in the contemplation of the grand and the marvelous. Into the solemn visions of antiquity we look without demanding the clear daylight of truth. Seen through the mist of ages the great becomes gigantic the wonderful swells into the sublimeÃî Ray The Illustrator and the Book in England from 1790 to 1914 p. 44. At the front of the Bible are three leaves of a family history partially inscribed with the births deaths and marriages of three generations of the Hubbard family of Derby England during the years 1889-1943.

The preliminary leaves are set up as in the other large folio editions but the text is printed in smaller type with 72 lines instead of 59 lines to the full column." Herbert 322. The Genealogies which accompany this book have a similar typographical history to that of the King James Bible itself. John Speed was granted a patent in 1610 for ten years to issue and insert his Genealogies and double-page general map engraved by Elstrack in every edition of this Bible. ìThe King James Bible or the Authorized Version as it is now commonly but not strictly accurately known was the outcome of the conference summoned at Hampton Court by the King in January 1604 in an attempt to settle the quarrels in the Church of England arising from the Puritan zeal of some of its members. It was the leader of the Puritan party John Reynolds the President of Corpus Christi College Oxford who first suggested the idea of a new translation.It has been described as ëthe only literary masterpiece ever to have been produced by a committeeà and was the work of nearly fifty translators organized in six groups.Being based on a wider range of classical and oriental scholarship than its predecessors the Authorized Version was a more learned text.No new English translation was produced until the Revised Version of 1881 and the influence of the Authorized Version may best be described in the words of G.M. Trevelyan. ëFor every Englishman who had read Sidney or Spenser or had seen Shakespeare acted at the Glove there were hundreds who had read or heard the Bible with close attention as the words of God. The effect of the continual domestic study of the book upon the national character imagination and intelligence for nearly three centuries to come was greater than that of any literary movement in our annals or any religious movement since the coming of St AugustineÃî Printing and the Mind of Man 114 describing the 1611 first edition.

New Testament of Jesus Christ
First Edition of the Roman Catholic Version of the Bible in English New Testament. BIBLE IN ENGLISH. New Testament. The New Testament of Jesus Christ Translated Faithfully into English out of the authentical Latin according to the best corrected copies of the same diligently conferred with the Greeke and other editions in divers languages: With Arguments of bookes and chapters Annotations. and other necessarie helpes for the better understanding of the text and specially for the discoverie of the Corruptions of divers late translations and for cleering the Controversies in religion of these daies: In the English College of Rhemes. Rheims: Printed.by John Fogny 1582. First edition of the Roman Catholic version of the New Testament in English. Small quarto 8 5/16 x 6 inches; 210 x 154 mm. 28 745 27 pp. Title within border of type ornaments decorative and historiated woodcut initials. Bound in 19th-century brown calf. Boards and spine ruled and stamped in blind. Spine with red morocco spine label lettered in gilt. Board edges and dentelles stamped in blind. All edges red. Marbled endpapers. Boards slightly rubbed. Four previous owner's bookplates on front pastedown. Front free endpaper with old ink notations quotation from Saint Augustine and small purple library stamp from the "Society of Jesus" in Milltown Park Ireland. The "Society of Jesus" is the Catholic group of which its members are the Jesuits. Title-page with cropped early annotation at top margin and same small "Society of Jesus" library stamp to lower corner. Some dampstaining and toning particularly to beginning. Some slight worming to fore-edge margin occasionally barely affecting text. Overall an excellent copy of the Rheims Bible. ìThe long title of The New Testament indicates at least in part the purpose which motivated William Allen and his small band of associates in the seminary of English Catholic refugees at Rheims. It was a losing battle for English Catholics merely to condemn the errors they claimed existed in other translations while declining to exhibit a translation which reflected their own critical principles.If the slow erosion of the Catholic faith in England was to be checked loyal Catholics would better withstand the taunts of Protestant Bible readers with the comfort and consolation drawn from a version of their own. As the title announces the translation was faithful to the Latin Vulgate but it also acknowledges careful comparison with the Greek. What the title does not specifically advertise is that Gregory Martin the chief translator borrowed freely from existing English versions. Close textual analysis has revealed many striking resemblances between the Rheims New Testament and CoverdaleÃs diglot of 1538. One new principle.was followed consistentlyótechnical words were transliterated in the text rather than translated the notes providing a clarification. Many of these words subsequently passed into the English language largely through the continuation of this practice by the revisers of the Authorized Version of 1611 who not only used these technical terms but also borrowed from Rheims many of its most felicitous and distinctive phrasesî In Remembrance of Creation 206. ìGregory Martin had originally translated the whole Bible into English but lack of funds permitted publication only of the New Testament in 1582. The long delay of twenty-seven years in completing the publication is underscored in the Preface of the Old Testament by reference to ëour poor estate in banishmentà In Remembrance of Creation 208. The annotations in the Old Testament are ascribed to Thomas Worthington who became President of the College at Douay in 1599. The ìApprobatioî is signed by three Professors at Douai.

While a contemporary lambasted Baskett for this and other typographical errors in the text calling it a "Baskett-ful of errors" Oxford historian of printing Harry Carter states that "only Baskerville's Bible is its equal among English Bibles for beauty of type impression and paper" The History of the Oxford University Press 1975 I p. 171 In 1709 John Baskett purchased the exclusive royal patent to print Bibles in England control of which his family retained until 1799. This magnificent edition of the Bible is among Baskett's most important works highly regarded for its large elegant type; its 60 striking copper-engraved vignette head- and tailpieces; and its many delicately engraved historiated initials. Two distinct varieties occur. This copy is Darlow & Moule's issue A with additional engraved general title page depicting Moses writing the first words of Genesis here bound as frontispiece; vignette view of Oxford on the general title page; and vignette title page for New Testament depicting the Annunciation dated 1716. The present example is noted for both its lovely contemporary black morocco gilt binding and for being ruled in red throughout. Similar bindings on this edition of the bible are noted in both the Wardington Collection and in Mirjam Foot's Studies in the History of Bookbinding p. 409.<br/> <br/>Darlow & Moule 735; Herbert 942.
