Description:
HOLY BIBLE, published by D & G BRUCE, printed and sold by A. PAUL, 72 NASSAU
STREET, NEW YORK in 1823. The binding is good and has not come apart, leather
cover is quite thick and intact with the exception of a tear at the top left
side of the spine leather and a crack in the bottom left spine leather. This

at the edges and this bible has all of the pages. It measures 4 1/2 by 7 1/4
inches, and has ALL of its 837 pages.
