Additional title page from a later edition bound in behind the facsimile. Gothic and Roman types text double column with 59 lines per column and printed within woodcut rule-border calendar and almanac printed in red and black. General title-page within engraved border by Christian Boel and section title for the New Testament dated 1611 within woodcut border. Full-sheet engraved map of the Holy Land by John Speed after Dr John More 17 leaves of genealogical tables incorporating woodcut illustrations of Adam and Eve Noah’s Ark the Tower of Babel and other Biblical subjects numerous woodcut head- and tail-pieces historiated and ornamental initials. Contemporary calf boards rebacked spine labels; some staining a few leaves with small holes or edges torn away but generally a very good copy. With a notation on the paste-down that the book was “received of William Biggs for the sum of 5 shillings . by me John Lang. Ford Warminster” dated 1747 and with a small but elaborate bookplate of William Thomas Smedley 1858-1920 the noted collector of Elizabethaniana and Bacon; his library was sold in 1924 to Henry Clay Folger and the Folger library collection today includes nearly 1500 volumes formerly owned by Smedley. First edition second issue/state called the “she” Bible because of the reading of Ruth III 15: “she went into the citie”. In addition because of the small hole in C6 Matthew 26:36 it is impossible to tell whether the word Judas or Jesus is printed. The King James version of the Holy Bible is arguably the most important book ever published in English. Preparation of the Royal Version took more than 5 years and was laboriously attended to by over 50 translators and researchers. The final translations were then exchanged and reviewed reaching a final committee of six. Supervision of the printing was carried out by Miles Smith and Thomas Bilson. Although the Royal Version appropriates much from the Tyndale Coverdale Geneva and Bishops’ Bibles it is unquestionably regarded as the greatest literary translation of the Bible ever produced.

The first complete Bible to be produced entirely in shorthand engraved throughout by John Sturt and including the metrical psalms of Sternhold and Hopkins translated from the King James Authorised Version by English writing master and stenographer William Addy c.1618-c.1695. Addy's shorthand system was extensively outlined in his Stenographia or The art of short- writing compleated in a far more compendious method than any yet extant London 1684. As he himself acknowledged it owed a great debt to the system of Jeremiah Rich d. c. 1660. Darlow & Moule transcribe a note from the B.M. copy which explains the method of production: 'This Bible in Stenography my Brethren at sight and all others skill'd in ye Art of Sculpture know it's Engraven; but in a Peculiar Manner. It was written by Mr. Addy in ungum'd Ink burnished on the wax and then run through with the Engraver by John Sturt'. The old bookseller's description tipped into this copy refers to the work as the 'Pepys shorthand Bible' referencing J.W. Carlton's 1933 article "Samuel Pepys his Short-hand Books" Transactions of the Bibliographical Society. New Series Vol. XIV p.83 1933; however Pepys copy is described as featuring 'a rapturous dedication to William of Orange' which was not added until the 1689 reissue confusingly with the title continuing to display the 1687 date of this Bible. One of three slight variant editions published in 1687.

'The Authorized Version of the English Bible first printed in 1611.is the most widely-published text in the English language. During many generations large portions of it were known by heart by people on both sides of the Atlantic. With Shakespeare its exact contemporary the Authorized Version has contributed countless quotations and expressions which have slipped hardly noticed into English language and idiom.The book was always printed according to a very precise formula. The lengthy wording of the title-page was unvarying. Every Bible opened with the standard preface to James I 'To the Most High and Mighty Prince James.' beginning 'Great and manifold were the blessings.' The text of the Bible was arranged in strict convention. It was generally laid out in two columns with separate numbered verses. Each chapter opened with a short summary of its content. There were no interpretative notes but there were brief references in the margins to parallel passages or variant readings. 246-249pp HAMEL Christopher De. The Book. A History of the Bible.

1837réf. List3613Philadelphia: Firth Meignen & Co. Publishers & Importers of Music and Musical Instruments No. 41 Chestnut Street 1837. Seven pages complete including dance figures. Folio sheet music. Very good with scattered foxing and light edge wear. A rare early American operatic dance arrangement by Francis Johnson 1792-1844 widely regarded as the first published Black composer in the United States. Issued circa 1837 this work adapts themes from Vincenzo Bellini's opera La Sonnambula 1831 into a set of quadrilles with concluding waltz arranged for piano forte and structured for social dancing. The internal headings "Pantalon" "Ladies Chain" etc. retain the formal quadrille sequence reflecting the popularity of European ballroom forms in Philadelphia during the period. Johnson a Philadelphia bandleader composer and virtuoso keyed bugle player published approximately seventy compositions over nearly three decades. Active in Philadelphia from at least the 1810s he became one of the city's most sought-after musicians leading ensembles for cotillions public balls military functions and civic celebrations. In 1818 became the first African-American composer known to have sheet music published in the United States. His band performed for elite social events and public commemorations including celebrations for the Marquis de Lafayette's visit to Philadelphia. In 1838 he toured Europe with his ensemble performing in England and reportedly receiving a silver trumpet from Queen Victoria. This piece was composed a year earlier per the Johnson page at Musicalgeography.com six years after Bellini's work. Operatic paraphrases and dance adaptations of fashionable European works were central to Johnson's output. Overall a quite scarce early title from an important composer. We find two copies in OCLC 692295106 at AAS and the William Clements Library. See "Francis Johnson's Compositions - With Sheet Music" https://musicalgeography.org/francis-johnsons-compositions/.
