Long Description
The Pronouncing Edition of the Holy Bible. Believe the actual publishing date was 1900, although original receipt inside states sold in 1910 for $14. The book is in immaculate condtion. Hundreds of black and white illustrations and many in color. Original protective parchment paper covers each color page and looks like they were never touched. Book weighs about 13 pounds. Have seen just one on-line, not in good condition, selling for over $400. Curious as to what the retail price of this book is. Thank you.
History
Had original receipt inside - sold in Boston in 1910. I purchased it at an estate sale in central New Hampshire two weeks ago.
