Book First Edition
Cloth, small folio, 27 cm, xi, 155 pp, facs. From the blurb - "After the translators of the Authorized Version of the Bible had finished their work, a small, select group of scholars and churchmen assembled at Stationers Hall in London in 1610 to survey and revise the entire book. Anthony Walker, in his sketch of the life of John Bois, a member of this final company of review, reports: Whilst they were imployed in this last businesse, he, & he only, took notes of their proceedings: which notes he kept till his dying day? (1645)'. The notes, it had been thought, were lost. But in 1964 Professor Allen by chance came upon a puzzling reference to the notes. He successfully traced them to the Corpus Christi College Library at Oxford University, where, among the papers of William Fulman - a seventeenth-century antiquarian and collector - Fulman s handwritten copy of John Bois s original notes had lain undiscovered since 1688. Historians have long speculated on the importance of the Bois notes and the answers they might provide to questions such as whether or not the translators kept in mind figures from classical rhetoric; which lexicons were used in translating; which Renaissance Greek scholars were consulted; and which ontological questions might have been subject to interpretative argument. In his introduction to Translating for King James Professor Allen argues the authenticity, provides the historical setting, and comments on the literary and theological implications of the notes. And the actual notes (in Latin, Greek and English), which are concerned with Romans to Revelation (the Apocalypse), are reproduced in facsimile. Allen s translations and annotations appear on pages facing the facsimiles and Appendix1 contains Allen s identification of classical and patristic sources cited in Bois s notes. Anthony Walker s biography of Bois is reprinted in full in Appendix II. " An ex-library copy with the residue of a label on the front free endpaper, a perforation stamp on the title-page, accession marks on the verso of the title-page, and with the dustwrapper (with library spine-label) in a protective sleeve which is taped to the boards.

Leaf from a First Edition 1611 King James Bible, 4th issue 1634, 59 line pulpit folio leave, The Leaf is an authentic original rag cotton Leaf from the first edition of King James Bible. It is large folio size, and measures 11" wide x 16-1/2" tall. There were five separate issues of the 1611 printing in total; 1611, 1613, 1617, 1634, and 1640/39. When King James authorized this large pulpit folio to be printed, Richard Barker did so by facilitating 5 separate printing presses working tirelessly for two years. By 1611, the pages of several thousand copies were printed and ready to be bound and issued to the churches of England. It is estimated that in 1611 roughly 300 Authorized Bibles were issued to the churches. The remainder of the printed pages were stored away until the next issue was decreed by the king of England. Over the next two years, this Bible was read in the churches and small errors began to be discovered. The most famous of these misprints is Ruth 3:15. In 1611, this verse was printed as "he" went into the city, when the correct translation should read "she" went into the city. Thus, naming the first edition-first issue of the King James Bible in 1611 as the Great "He" Bible. As these misprints were discovered, these specific leaves, and only these leaves, were re-printed, and then bound with the other leaves originally printed in 1611. These were then issued at the next decree of the king. The next issue was in 1613. At this point, several of the known misprints were corrected along with Ruth 3:15 being changed to "she", thus the second issue was named the Great "She" Bible in 1613. Over the course of the next 29 years, there were five pulpit folios issued to the churches with the majority of the leaves being printed originally in 1611, and with each issue, small errors were fixed, and these pages were reprinted. In the 4th and 5th issues, 1634 and 1640, the text layout stayed exactly the same but with a larger number of small changes made to the marginal notes which suggests a larger reprinting done in the latter years. Finally, in 1640, the 5th and last issue was released concluding the legacy of the 1611 printed folios. These misprints, corrections, and small changes will clearly define the different issue dates of the 1611 King James Bible.
