Summary
London: Robert Barker, 1615. 4to (9 x 7 in). A complete and early 1614-15 quarto King James Bible in attractively rebound dark calf. Text is printed in black letter and is bound with the Book of Common Prayer, Genealogies, Tables, and Whole Book of Psalms.
Description
The Book of Common Prayer largely incomplete with only the Psalms remaining. The Genealogies with printed title page by J[ohn] S[peed], complete without map. The general title page (1614) engraved within woodcut border comprising twenty-four compartments showing the tents of the twelve tribes as well as the figures of the twelve apostles. Title is enclosed within a heart-shaped frame. Text in two column black letter. Both titles omit the words "appointed to be…" and the general title is remarkable as it reads "the Bible" instead of "the Holy Bible." Ruth 3:15 with "she went…" Apocrypha included as issued. New Testament title page (1615) with border like the general title. Concludes with colophon (1615) and tailpiece.
