Sobre este artículo
Germantown, PA: Michael Billmeyer, 1803. Hardcover. 16mo. Original full calf with metal clasps present and functional. 537pp, (5pp); 537pp, (5pp); 537pp, (3pp). Overall very good. Bindings all a bit edgeworn but decent; some flyleaves are fairly modern replacements, others have extensive contemporary inked notes; text blocks moderately age toned throughout, with mild occasional foxing. Three different printings of this noted German-American Bible: Tight and attractive second (1795), third (1803) and eighth (1819) printings of this noted "New Testament" issue from the press of the well-known Philadelphia printer (1752-1837); the printing office and home in which these were printed still stands today; it was built in 1730, purchased by Billmeyer in 1789 and is supposedly the site from which George Washington directed his Continental Army forces in the Battle of Germantown. When Billmeyer and his father-in-law set up their Lutheran press in the 1780s, they acquired the surviving equipment of the renowned Philadelphia printer Christopher Saur Jr., whose press the British had destroyed in 1777. The two small leather straps on this copy are old but not original, but all the brass clasp parts are present and attractive -- and it still clicks firmly closed. Despite mild wear, an exceptional copy.
