The King James Version splendidly preserved in an English Restoration binding of gilt panelled dark brown morocco furnished in silver with engraved centrepieces bearing the monogram 'AA' and the armorial device of three mullets or six points pierces cornerpieces and clasps in full working order. Binding 'furniture' originally served a functional purpose with bosses and cornerpieces helping to protect the covers from wear and tear and clasps employed to prevent the parchment leaves of manuscript books from warping. The advent of paper and the movement away from wood to pasteboard had largely made these features redundant by the end of the seventeenth century. Instead as here metalwork survived as a decorative feature which enhanced the binding of important devotional works whilst also helping to keep these texts which were more likely to be carried about secure see David Pearson English Bookbinding Styles 1450-1800 pp26-30. Our example is bound without the Apocrypha. Darlow and Moule note that the Apocrypha in their example no. 469 is possibly supplied from another edition and that a different copy is lacking the Apocrypha.

A fine copy of this rare bible with superb provenance. Extra-illustrated with 213 engraved plates including 29 double-page. The plates have captions in several languages including English and Hebrew and the artists include G. Hoet A. Houbraken and Bernard Picart.

Thomas inherited his father's printing house and his title as King's Printer. His reputation grew and his bibles were the first English bibles to be printed in America in 1761. This finely bound copy is from the library of Henry Fiennes Pelham-Clinton 2nd Duke of Newcastle under Lyne 1720-1794 who inherited the dukedom from his uncle in 1768. He held many other prestigious posts such as Gentleman of the Bedchamber to George II and George III and several official posts including Lord Lieutenant of Cambridgeshire 1742-1757 High Steward of Westminster 1759-1794 and Comptroller of Customs of the Port of London 1749-1794.

Gauffering to gilt edges the clasp has slightly damaged the fore-edges towards the end where it has evidently dragged along the text block. A handsome copy of the 'Pearl' Bible with just a few minor flaws printed by John Field during the rule of Cromwell's Commonwealth at the behest of Parliament. Although produced in large numbers Darlow and Moule suggests in excess of 20000 their diminutive size the small volumes were designed to fit into the pocket of the British souls and poor quality of paper means that few survive in such condition: . Conforming to the Authorised King James Version the Field Bible was printed with a haste unheard of in Bible production and is thus notorious for its wildly varying inaccuracies and misprints. In this copy the three errors noted by Darlow and Moule to John IX. 21 Romans VI.13 and1 Corinthians VI.9 have all been corrected but three further to Matthew VI. 24 John II.10 and III.21 identified by Lee Wilson are all incorrrect.

réf. 123616London Imprinted at London by Robert Barker Printer to the Kings most Excellent Maiestie 1614-1613. . Four works in 1 vol.; 4to 23.5 x 18 cm; woodcut title-pages NT title dated 1613 with apocrypha Common Prayer with woodcut title and calendar printed in red and black early MS annotations in pen to margin of Bible 2H3 extensive MS family register to front endpapers the odd spot and area of toning final f. with closed tear to margin internally generally clean and crisp; contemporary blind-panelled calf later endpapers spine expertly restored edges sprinkled red a little rubbed very good or better. A superb example of the Geneva Bible well-preserved in contemporary blind-panelled calf and complete with the Book of Common Prayer Concordances and Psalms. The Geneva Bible was first published in 1560. The translation was primarily the work of English 'Marian exiles' on the continent who having fled England following the accession of Mary I in 1553 sought to create a version of the scriptures that emphasised clarity and promoted accessibility for the learned lay. It was the primary Bible of the evangelical movement and continued to be used by dissenting Protestants from Shakespeare to Oliver Cromwell well into the seventeenth century; it was one of the Bibles taken to America by the first pilgrims on the Mayflower. Notable innovations include the use of verse divisions which made it easier to locate specific passages and extensive study notes commentary and annotations that reflected the Reformed Calvinist theology of the time. As a result the translation proved unpopular with the Elizabethan regime which sought a more moderate religious settlement. The Archbishop of Canterbury Matthew Parker was duly authorised in 1568 to produce a more orthodox translation the Bishops' Bible which promoted the Anglican church and would go on to form the basis of the King James Version in 1611. Nevertheless the Geneva Bible remained popular until at least 1644 when the last known seventeenth-century edition was printed.
