Found this Bible in a storage unit and am curious about where it was made and how old it is. It is so beautiful with the beautiful leather and the silver latches. The binding is falling apart and am wondering where to find someone who does restores antique books.
Beautiful find ! It is wrote in English ?
Yes it is written in English. I would really like to find out more about it.
Many old Bibles have a page where you can see Family names written it does yours ? Does it have any etchings ( pictures in it ) Can you show first page where it should say Publishers name and date ?

skip last link go by the first one . The last link is not exact as is the first one . Does yours have names in it or are the pages you would enter like marriage ect ?
Very valuable Bible and I would check on how to preserve it . Use white cotton gloves when turning pages and should be kept in acid free environment . Beautiful and what a great find !
Thank you so much!!
