The Luther Bible of 1534: VA
Seller: THE BOOKSNIFFER, Lewes, East Sussex, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Limited Edition. An extraordinary example of modern technology at the service of a great and ancient book; this is a two volume facsimile of the Luther Bible, known as the book of books, with a separate cultural and historical introduction by Stephan Fussel. All three books are contained in a sturdy slipcase. All three books are as new, but the slipcase has some superficial signs of usage. This is truly a highly collectable treasure. An exceptionally heavy set, so this may need extra postage depending on the destination. Seller Inventory # ABE-1637256048900
