A Holy Bible Containing The Old Testament Printed In 1802 By M. ANGUS & SON
Item History & Price
The Rev. William Graham (1737-1801) of Newcastle, England was a very influential nonconformist minister, who apparently was the "Billy Graham" of his day. Rev. Graham developed and assembled all the ADDED FEATURES not heretofore available in just the one book and ordered a small number of his masterpiece printed in 1801 (the same year he died) and the printer, M. Angus & Son, then published an even smaller second printing in 1802 to fill a few remaining or...ders and a few new ones that may have resulted from the announcement of Rev. Graham's death. We do not know of a single other surviving example of this unique and historic Holy Bible.
"The HOLY BIBLE Containing the Old and New Testaments, Harmonized by Proper Marginalized References to Familier Texts in Both Testaments, With Short Illustrations of Difficult Passages and an Evangelical Reflection on Each Chapter, Selected and Arranged by The Reverend Mr. William Graham of Newcastle, To Which Are Amended a General Index of Scripture History and Tables of Scripture Measures, Weights, and Coins."
This Bible was printed before printers thought to put number on the pages. It seems weird that there was ever such a time, and I mention this because I don't know how many pages there are here. Close examination will show It is complete, plus it has all the described additional material. A TRUE PRINTED TREASURE! Please let me know if you need any other photos. 12" X 10" X 3 1/4" Thanks for looking. Charlie
