Random Leaf, 1613 King James “He” Bible, NEW TESTAMENT. Printed in London, 1613. Gothic / Black Letter type. The last edition to follow the text of the 1611 folio “He” first edition/issue. A “close reprint” according to Herbert, H323. All King James editions printed after 1613, as well as most editions printed 1611-1613, are corrected “She” editions. “Random Leaf” means “our choice” of a non-premium leaf in FINE or better condition, with minor smudges, from the New Testament. Leaf comes in a clear, temporary sleeve, plus a full sized COA with gold seal and signature.
The Leaves offered here are from the New Testament, in good condition overall, without tears. Leaves are intact and fully readable, but with a light to mild stain at one corner of the leaf. Leaves come in either an Archival Sleeve with Certificate of Authenticity (should you like to have it framed), or in an Archival Booklet should you like to keep it as is. The dark blue Archival Booklet contains a full-sized Certificate of Authenticity, with both leaf and COA protected in separate archival sleeves. All Leaves are "random" and pre-selected.
