First edition. Small quarto. 38 leaves of text with the 38 plates printed from the original woodblocks dating from the period 1470-1540. The book came about because the blocks had been acquired by the Unwin Brothers who printed this edition. It was published to coincide with the Caxton celebration of 1877 and the type matches the characters used by Caxton in printing The Game and Playe of the Chesse. The binding (thick parchment boards decorated in blind) also accords with the style of the period, being copied from an early block book in the British Museum. Loosely inserted is the 12-page brochure which serves as the prospectus, introduction and colophon. Number 176 of 257 copies printed on handmade paper of a texture and colour to imitate that used in the fifteenth century. Signed by the Unwin Brothers.Covers rubbed at the edges and dusty. The spine is generally worn and the joints are splitting. The head and tail of spine are chipped. The two sets of brass clasps lack the straps. Internally fine.

This limited edition was produced for the occurrence of the Caxton Celebration of 1877. The original woodblocks dating sometime between 1470-1540 were purchased by the Unwin brothers and used to print the plates which pair up nicely with the facsimile text of Wiclif's New Testament of 1525. It is unknow what work these woodblocks were originally used for the printing of, as the have not been "recognized as belonging to any printed book". "In issuing them, combined with a suitable descriptive text, our thought has been to produce, as nearly as possible, a counterpart of an old Biblia Pauperum, and thus form a fitting memorial not only of the Caxton Celebration, but also of the Wiclif Quincentenart." (Unwin Brothers, from the note by the printer). Herbert, 2008. HBS 66069. $2,500. Signed.
