Description
A leaf from one of the earliest printings of the original King James Bible: printed between 1614 and 1649 in England… these leaves are well over 360 years old. They each come with a beautiful eight-page Historical Brochure containing a Certificate of Authenticity signed by the founder of the World Bible Society. The King James Bible remains the greatest book in the English language and the best-selling book of all time. It is in fact, the only book with over one billion copies in print, and this leaf is from one of the first several thousand to be printed. Whether framed and displayed in your home or given as a wonderfully unique gift: it is sure to draw attention.
These leaves measure approximately 8 to 9 inches tall by 6 to 7 inches wide. They were printed on 100% rag cotton linen sheet, not wood-pulp paper like books today, so they remain in excellent condition… even after nearly 400 years. Each leaf is a unique piece of ancient artwork, carefully produced one at a time by the King’s printers using a movable-type press, and later bound together into whole Bibles. These genuine original antiquities are very rare and precious pieces of our history and our Christian heritage. Starting at under $60, we are offering them for considerably less than the $300 to $500 each that they sell for in frame shops and galleries across America.
When purchased in quantity, (each with a brochure and certificate), they cost as little as $15 each. These Old and New Testaments leaf packs are among our best-selling items because you can keep one and give all the other leaves away at your next family gathering, office party, church raffle, or for unique wedding party gifts. Also, if you do a personal Christmas card mailing, customer-appreciation mailing, or top-client / donor mailing; you can include one of these treasures and each person will think you spent hundreds of dollars on them! There is no cheaper way to bring a tear to the eye of ten or twenty people, than the gift of a genuine original page from a rare and ancient printing of God’s Word. You will truly be amazed at how people who receive one of these ancient Bible leaves will stare in amazement and say, “Wow! I can’t believe you did this for me… this is amazing.”
Imagine… having a favorite passage of scripture from one of the earliest printings of the most printed book in the world: The King James Bible.
