WITH LEAVES FROM 38 BIBLES PRINTED IN AMERICA BEFORE 1900. ?As new. This is a beautifully presented collection of 38 leaves taken from (incomplete copies of) the most significant editions of the Scriptures printed in the present geographical United States between 1663 and 1878. The four portfolios contain leaves from 10 18th century Bibles in English, 10 19th century Bibles in English, eight Bibles in the languages of the native peoples of America, and 10 Bibles in other languages. Each Bible represented has an important place in the printing and cultural history of America. In addition to Eliot's first Indian Bible of 1663 and to Bibles in Chippewa, Mohawk, Hawaiian, Cherokee, Dakota, and Choctaw, the portfolios contain leaves from the first American Bibles in English, German, French, Spanish, and Hebrew, the first American New Testaments in Greek, Portuguese, Dutch, and Swedish, the first illustrated American Bible, the first printed on American paper and with American-made type, the first Confederate Bible, the first Bible translated by a woman, the first Bible printed for the blind in America, and more. The informative introductory essay, bibliographical descriptions, and commentaries are printed on separate sheets (partly to facilitate display). The present set has come directly from the publisher in the original packing container and has seen no use beyond what was necessary to do this cataloguing.
