For sale is a magnificent Victorian "Brown’s Self-Interpreting Family Bible" by Rev. John Brown, published by Adam & Co. (Newcastle-on-Tyne). This is a substantial, heavy volume that serves as a beautiful piece of 19th-century history. Key Details: • Provenance: Features a stunning handwritten calligraphy dedication dated 1874, making it over 150 years old. • Aesthetics: Deeply embossed leather binding with symbolic gold gilt illustrations on the front cover. The pages feature vibrant chromolithograph (colour) title plates and a portrait of the author. • Finish: All page edges are finished in bright gold gilt, which remains in impressive condition. • Content: Comprehensive family Bible including the Old and New Testaments, marginal references, and evangelical reflections. Condition: In good antique condition. The leather cover shows authentic age-related wear and scuffing to the spine and corners, which adds to its Victorian character. The internal pages are generally clean with some minor foxing (age spots) as expected. The binding remains firm. A rare find for collectors of religious texts, Victorian decor, or genealogy enthusiasts.
