Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Foolscap 4to (9 in x 6.5in). Title (A1) followed by the dedication To The Most High and Mightie Prince James., (A2-3), The Translators to the Reader (A4+8 pp. without signatures), The names and order of all of the Bookes of the Olde and New Testament, with the number of their Chapters (final page of foregoing without signature), The Old Testament, Apocrypha, and The New Testament (with separate title: London: Robert Barker and John Bill, 1630). Printed in English black letter in 72 lines double columns. The first edition of 1611 is in 59 lines double columns. Alfred Pollard, (Records of the English Bible, 1911 p.67) notes that the first change from 59 to 72 was "a folio reprint for church use in smaller type" reducing the leaves need from 732 to 508. According to this source ".a third edition in the largest type was published in 1617, a fourth in 1634, and a fifth in 1640". This copy of the 1630 quarto edition has four signed sheets followed by four unsigned sheets throughout. This copy does not have the 18 leaves of the Genealogies of Holy Scripture and a sheet with a map of Canaan. Pollard notes, "Inserted at the binder's pleasure after the preface.are usually eighteen leaves of the Genealogies of Holy scripture and a sheet containing a map of Canaan with a table.on the reverse. In October 1610 John Speed had obtained a privilege from the king enabling him for ten years to saddle every edition of the Scriptures with his decoratively printed but useless Genealogies so the cost of the book was needlessly increased." (Pollard, p. 63). So clearly the Genealogies and the map are not always present especially after 1621 and are John Speed's products, not inherent parts of the Barker Bible. Original blind tooled polished calf with blind initials IB at the top of the upper side and initials IW at the bottom over original hickory boards. Nailed brass center and corners on both sides, upper and lower sides nailed clasps for leather straps (no longer present). Old but not original endpapers and blanks at each end. Re-backed in brown calf over four original heavy cords. Fine professional re-backing to original blind decorated boards in clean attractive condition but with some minor calf loss at the edges. Brasses have round centers for "jewels", none present, and the leather strap for the clasps are gone. Endpapers and blanks at the front and back are replaced, but the original text begins with the general title (signed A) and ends with "finis" on the recto of the final leaf of the New Testament with the final imprint of Barker and Bill dated 1630 and the verso blank. Old by hand note of marriage of James and Ann Seredy August 9, 1781, on the first page of the dedication (A2) and other family history with dates of 1737-1796 on the verso of A3.
