This antique leather-bound Holy Bible, printed by the Oxford University Press (London: A poignant piece of history, the flyleaf features a beautifully preserved, hand-written presentation inscription dated May 21st, 1913. The bible features a heavily textured, grain-finish dark leather cover with gilt lettering on the spine and elegant gilt-edged pages. Reflecting its century-old journey, some scuffing, rubbing, and a small tear along the leather cover edges, while the internal text remains remarkably clean, intact, and legible. Based on the publisher's imprint details, this Oxford University Press Bible can be narrowed down to a manufacturing date between 1896 and 1906. This specific decade is locked in because the American branch only operated out of the 91 & 93 Fifth Avenue address during those years, a timeframe that perfectly aligns with Henry Frowde's tenure as the official publisher. Furthermore, a handwritten gift inscription confirms the Bible was already in circulation by 1913, proving it to be a circa 1900 printing despite the lack of an official publication year on the title page.
