Description
Summary: Germantown: Christoph[er] Saur, 1743. 4to (9.5 X 7.5 in). The first Bible printed in America after Elliot's Indian Bible of the 1660s, and the first American Bible printed in a European language. A very good copy in original beveled boards. Description: There are several clippings pertaining to this edition of the Bible mounted on the front pastedown. Printed general title page (1743) laid down with loss to the lower border and imprint, which have been replaced in facsimile. Ornamental headpiece at the beginning of Genesis. Text in two column black letter, with cross references and short summaries at the beginning of each chapter. The text is based on Martin Luther's version by way of the 34th edition of the Halle Bible, with books three and four Esra and three Maccabees supplied from the Berlenburg Bible. The present copy has "parallelen" spelled correctly (a second issue of the title had this word misspelled as "parllelen" as it was made in haste.) Printed New Testament title page (1743). Ornamental headpiece at the beginning of Matthew. Concludes with a Register (3 pp.). Collation: *^2, A-Z^4, 2A-2Z^4, 3A-3Z^4; 4A-4Z^4; 5A-5Z^4, 6A-6I^4, 6J^2 (Old Testament); A-Z^4, 2A-2M^4, 2N^2 (New Testament). Lacks Rrr-Sss (Psalm 23-56). Binding: Period full sheep over beveled oak boards. Sometime expertly rebacked with the original spine laid on. A portion of one strap perished, with the original hasp and other strap remaining. Binding chipped in various places, but nicely restored. Condition: Some dampstaining in places, most prevalent to first few leaves; some toning, occasional soiling and spotting, as typical; small hole to final leaf with loss of a few letters; a few instances of shaved catchwords in places; introductory leaf remargined with loss of a few letters to margins. Note: 1200 copies of this Bible were printed by Christopher Saur. He was a man of conviction in matters of morality and religion, and he sought to produce a Bible that his fellow Germans could read in their native tongue. He appealed to Germany where Dr. Heinrich Luther provided him with the type, in exchange for a presentation copy. It took him three years to complete the printing of the Bible. Saur made every effort to promote the reading of the Scriptures. His asking price was eighteen shillings but his quoted as saying that "to the poor and needy we have no price." An estimated 120 copies have survived, making copies of the 1743 edition quite scarce. References: D&M 4240; Evans 5127; Wright 31.

Description
Paris/Leipzig (G. de Gonet/ Charles Twietmeyer), n.d. [1850].. (2), 300pp. Frontispiece and 15 steel engraved plates hors texte, the whole finished by hand in colors, and the plates themselves printed on doilies tipped onto pink guards, the pink visible throughout the elaborately full percaline, elaborately gilt and colored with designs on both covers and spine. 4to. Publisher’s original full percaline, elaborately gilt and colored identically on each companion volume. A.e.g. Tissue guards. Later protective chemise. Together with:   Les joyaux. Fantaisie par Gavarni. Texte par Méry. Minéralogie des dames par Cte. Foelix. (Perles et Parues.) (2), 316pp. Frontispiece and 16 steel-engraved plates hors texte, the whole finished by hand in colors, and the plates printed on doilies in the same format as the foregoing.   “These books contain thirty-two engravings on steel by Geoffroy after Gavarni. They are studies of beautiful women, fashionably attired for the most part, which were drawn in London. Méry wrote the ‘fantasy’ accompanying them to fit Gavarni’s designs...” (Gordon Ray). After mentioning the ordinary edition of the work, Ray proceeds to discuss this “far more appealing...special edition, in which the steel engravings are printed and delicately colored on paper with borders cut to various lace patterns. So presented, Gavarni’s designs became fashion plates of the first order.” Intermittent light foxing, mostly on the tissue guards and not the plates; a very desirable set, the original bindings still brilliant.
