Description
EXODUS 12:26-15:21 (2 leaves). “Crossing the Red Sea”. Printed in London by Bill & Newcomb, MDCCIII (1703); on fine linen-rag, not the usual cotton-rag. Ruled-in-Red. 3 leaves are included: ORIGINAL F.H. van Hove ENGRAVING (1672), in SUPERIOR condition; and 2 leaves, in EXCELLENT condition. Each leaf is set in an archival sleeve. COA on “gold-leaf” premium paper. A nice presentation of this premier leaf-set! Portfolio No. 9 of 50 only from this Bible; there are no NT leaves. This Bible is triple rare: it includes the engravings (most did not), it is printed on linen-rag (most did not), and is ruled-in-red (most did not); each rarity increases the overall rarity of the Bible.
