Description: Pronouncing Parallel Pictorial Family Holy Bible by A.J. Holman Philly, PA 1893 This Holy Bible was published in Philadelphia in 1893. The cover is embossed featuring gilded gold outlining. The Bible's page edges are also gilded. It features two brass clasps. The cover is not connected to the binding, and that appears to be the only flaw as viewed in fourth photo. This Bible weighs 13.8 lbs. It is 11"W x 13"H x 5"D. "Biden Bible". It is similar to the Bible used by President Joe Biden to take his oath of office at his Presidential inauguration on January 21, 2021. This Bible was a gift to a married couple from Berkeley Springs, WV & Paw Paw, WV from the bride's family on April 26, 1893. This Bible features the following sections: Dictionary of 3,500 Proper names + descriptions2,000 illustrationsDozens of lithographs & chromolithographs, complete with tissue guards bound into the binding (photo 6)103-page dictionary with every important Scriptural Word by William Smith LL.D., entered according to an Act of Congress 1872Hofmann gallery (photo 8)Gust.

It is in very good shape. The cover has become unattached to the binding, but that seems like the only flaw. It can be repaired, but we chose to present it in the same fashion we found it. The tissue guards are all intact and have done an amazing job protecting the lithographs and chromolithographs. Many of similar Bibles are available, but few feature the closure clasps. Please let me know if you have any questions. Shipping is a flat $20.
