London:Printed by John Field, One of His Highness'・・・
The 'Pearl Bible'. Full contemporary leather. All edges gilt. Rebacked with the original boards preserved. Carefully collated.
Faults: Page Bb3 in Vol. I has a small tear to the fore-edge, with loss of 3 or 4 letters. Page Tt10 in Vol. II has the corner torn away, with the loss of a few words at the foot of the page. Damp-staining, age-toning and occasional fading throughout. Pages Oo to Rr are trimmed close at the fore-edge margin, occasionally affecting the text (an early binder's error). Some pages have creases obscuring the text (which remains present), presumably occurring during binding.
This remarkable Bible is known as the 'Pearl Bible' from the minuscule type with which it was printed. It has been suggested that this edition may represent a Dutch counterfeit printing produced for the English market, although the evidence remains inconclusive. Most nineteenth-century bibliographers, including Lowndes, describe the edition as extremely rare in good condition.
