Specimens of printing and binding.
This Bible , in two volumes, from the foundation ofthe binding, has been carefully executed, especially asregards the flexible backs. One hundred and twelveengravings are in the books, which are all guarded onsatin, preventing the plate paper from cracking, and at thesame time making an easy hinge for the engravings toopen upon. Every signature or section is sewed withstrong silk and bound round the bands from end to end,making it a very elaborate piece of sewing. The volumesare also forwarded in the most flexible style, in referenceto the backs, so that if the backs are turned inside out theywill return without the slightest injury.
The style is antique, one volume bearing the model ofthe tower of Magdalen College, Oxford. There is oneespecial feature in this Bible deserving notice : the familyrecord, which is altogether on a new plan, being insertedin the lids, each lid containing two original designs.
