Smythson Bible - Quick Preview



Last night my wife brought back these 3 beautiful dolls HAND MADE by a dear church sister. They are so gorgeous that I decided to take some "modeling" pix.


It the midst of shooting...a parcel arrived - A BLUE parcel!


YES! It's from Smythson of Bond Street! A week after reading that article from Mark...it finally arrived.


It's the Smythson Brown Mara Croc-print Calfskin KJV Bible!



This hardcover Smythson Bible is truly exquisite... Yes, it is HARDcover - so u won't be doing any "Bible Yoga" with this jewel anytime soon.


Inside, it is silk lined with silk end papers too. (Or at least I think it's silk.)

The bible text block (Oxford Brevier Black-face) is of course smyth sewn and the printing is EXCELLENT - crisp & clear. And best of all, it comes with the Oxford Cyclopedic Concordance at the back!



Truly truly gorgeous Bible.
