King James Version / Authorized Version.
Compact Oxford King James Bible with onyx typeface (2 mm). Center-column references. Imitation leather cover with semi yapp and red art guilt pages. Purple ribbon. Two color maps: "Canaan as Divided Among the Tribes" and "Palestine in the Time of Our Lord." Unknown year (1920-1950?).
The cover is badly damaged at the top and bottom of the spine revealing the card stock used beneath the imitation leather. The endpapers have moderate tearing, especially behind the back cover where a 3 cm piece is pealing off at the bottom. The endpapers also suffer from mildew damage that has spotted several pages of the text block. The pages generally remain in good condition, but are yellowed around the edges and the gilt is badly scuffed. Two presentation bookplates, one glued over the other. Frayed ribbon.
Despite the damage and wear, the binding is tight and the text remains unmarked and legible.
Dimensions including yapp: 192 x 131 x 25 mm
