About This Item
London: Imprinted by [John Wolfe for] John Day, 1583.. [6],322,[19] leaves; [12],136,[16]pp. Quarto. Full 19th century crushed levant, raised bands, gilt inner dentelles, a.e.g. by Jenkins & Cecil. Both titles within elaborate woodcut borders, with woodcut map on verso of ¶8 and Royal Arms at conclusion of St. John. Woodcut initials. Texts in black letter, that in the second work in double columns. The first work wants the two preliminary blanks and the final blank. Joints rubbed, clearly washed and pressed at the time of binding, though with occasional light foxing and minor spotting remaining, a handful of small marginal repairs, lower margins of U2-3 in second work a bit frayed (with a few small chips not affecting text), old vertical crease in title pressed flat; generally a very good (if somewhat processed) copy. The Geneva - Tomson text of the New Testament, revised by Tomson from the translation by Whittingham, Gilby, Sampson and others. First printed in 1576, Tomson's revision eventually became the final and most popular version of the Geneva text. The edition of the Psalms by Sternhold and Hopkins was first published in its complete form in 1562, and was frequently reprinted, often to be bound to accompany other editions of the Bible. ESTC S123036 & S102250. STC 2885 & 2466. HERBERT 180. DARLOW & MOULE 137. LUBORSKY & INGRAM 2885.
