Leather binding with maroon label on the spine stamped in gold, "Holy Bible." Evans 25172 Hills 44 Early American Bibles are scarce. Isaiah Thomas of Worcester, Mass, printed Bibles in Folio, Octavo, and Quarto sizes in the 1790's. This is the first printing of the octavo bible, measures 5.25 inches x 8.75 inches. The pages have been trimmed quite close to the text, especially in the New Testament, but all the text is present. As you can see in the photos, the pages are toned from age, sometimes significantly, with also some occasional foxing. Some indistinct writing on the inside covers, but it doesn't appear to be names or dates and I can't quite make it out. Please email with questions or to request photos. If you see a photo beside this listing, please be aware that it's an ABE Stock Photo (whatever that is) and not a photo of this book.
