Rebound in quarter brown cloth and marbled paper over boards. 71pp. Ornate-bordered frontispiece and entire text bearing same border with title running heads dedication and colophon in orange and initial capitals in blue. Near fine. Handsome copy of this lush text for which 300 copies were printed. William H. Wilke's striking full-length portrait of David in full regalia and his large intertwined borders lend this volume its distinct illuminated medieval manuscript feel and its tight Gothic text obliges Nash to note in his dedication that "it will doubtless be said by critics that it is hard to read" and to admit "I agree: the book has been done with the hope that it will prove to be a typographical picture." He dedicates it to "his friends and notably for his Jewish friends of San Francisco. the men and women of San Francisco who proudly claim racial connection with the royal singer of Israel. Our city acclaims them for their distinguished patronage of music arts and letters no less than for their charitable and philanthropic generosity." In the rear colophon he notes creating it "for the joy of doing" and that it was done "over a period of ten years." Nash has signed the front pastedown large and bold in pencil. "O'DAY 62-63.

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.
