Description
1640 RARE Holy Bible Church of England Anglican Barker APOCRYPHA King James

In the 16th- and 17th-centuries, English Bibles printed by Barker were extremely popular and have maintained their value and desirability into the 21st-century. Christopher and Robert Barker were well known for their printings of King James and Geneva Bibles as well as editions of the Book of Common Prayer. However, dozens of editions and variations on those editions were printed throughout the early 17th-century.

This curious 1640 edition features the complete Apocrypha, complete New Testament, and a separate, paginated study guide following the conclusion of the New Testament.

Note on edition – this edition, while dated 1640 on the New Testament colophon, lacks the New Testament title page as well as the complete Old Testament. The size of this paper as well as edition points laid out by Darlow and Moule do not correlate with this example. It most closely resembles D&M 548 in content and the corrected text error in Matthew 9:13.

Item number: #5253

Price: $950
