Psalm Title Page Original Bible Leaf AND 1611 King James Bible Super Deluxe Facsimile Edition

"1. Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsell of the vngodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornefull.
2. But his deligh is in the Law of the Lord, and in his Law doeth he meditate day and night.
3. And he shalbe like a tree planted by the riuers of water, that bringeth foorth his fruit in his season, his leafe shall not wither, and whatsoeuer he doeth, shall prosper.
4. The vngodly are not so: but are like the chaffe, which the winde driueth away.
5. Therefore the vngodly shall not stand in the iudgement, nor sinners in the Congregation of the righteous. 
6. For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the vngodly shall perish."
- Psalm 1 (1611 KJV)

This one of a kind and extremely limited edition package includes an ORIGINAL Psalm 1 Title Page Ancient Bible Leaf from an ORIGINAL, over 400 Year Old, 1611 King James Bible.  The extremely rare and highly sought after Psalm Title Page Leaf (a $4,995 value if purchased separately) from an original first edition press run 1611 King James Bible contains one of the most beloved and most comforting Scripture passages of all time.  Now you can own the Psalm Title Page Original 1611 Bible Leaf AND the 1611 King James Super Deluxe Facsimile Edition Bible in combination, for the first time ever, and for the same cost as the leaf only, exclusively from The KJV Store.  

The Super Deluxe Facsimile 1611 Edition
The King James Bible is the most printed book in the history of the world (remarkably, not just the most printed bible in the world).  The year 2011 marked the King James Version’s 400th Anniversary (from 1611 to 2011).  It is the English Bible that has stood the test of time and that “sounds like the bible”.  To commemorate the KJV 400th Anniversary, we are proud to offer these exact page-for-page photographic duplicates of the original 1611 King James Bible, available in the elegantly bound Super Deluxe Edition Genuine Cowhide Leather.

Significance of the 1611 Edition KJV
At The KJV Store, we consider the KJV to be THE Bible in English, and we consider the 1611 King James Bible Super Deluxe Facsimile to be the Hallmark of King James Version Bibles.  Owning an original 1611 Facsimile replica of this immense size, magnitude, and beauty means that one possesses a copy of the most authentic 1611 King James Bible in the world.

The King James Bible is the only book in the world that can claim one billion copies in print. It set the standard by which all subsequent English Bible translations have been measured.  For this company and the majority of our customers, the English language Bible as we know it today IS the King James Bible. Original First Editions have sold for over $400,000 at recent auctions, and over $100,000 went into the production setup to create these magnificent heirloom quality facsimiles.  Now, these affordable facsimiles make it possible for everyone to have a First Edition 1611 King James Bible.

Most people have never seen what the original 1611 King James Bible looks like, and having one in your home will provide a great conversation-piece, and an object of great beauty for all to admire.  Considered the "Holy Grail" of book collectors everywhere, the "Bible to end all Bibles", is the First Edition of the beloved 1611 King James Bible. These faithful and exact reproductions of the very first King James Pulpit Bible are indeed works of art and fine craftsmanship beyond compare. Each edition is "more than a facsimile, it is a masterpiece."

Significance of Size and Binding
Measuring the exact size of the original 1611 printing: an enormous 17-1/2 inches tall by 12 inches wide by 5-1/2 inches thick (including its slipcase), with "Open" reading dimensions spread to nearly 30 Inches (when measured corner to corner), and weighing almost 30 pounds, so much it nearly takes two people to comfortably move it, this is the finest reproduction of the 1611 ever undertaken. Unlike other facsimiles, the Super Deluxe Editions are printed on 100% acid-free, archival grade, heavy cream paper, just like the original 1611. The originals that were actually printed in 1611 were commissioned by King James I to be literally chained to the pulpit of every church in England. Now you can own a facsimile replica of that exact same bible.

These massive pulpit folio-sized bibles make a great centerpiece for the communion table or the entry-way in a church. They are also quite popular as centerpieces for private home libraries. If you are looking for something that will make people stop and stare, this is it! Photographs cannot adequately show what a stunning and magnificent display piece these enormous folios are.  You will spend hours pouring over it’s magnificent typography and woodcut designs found in the original 1611 KJV, as well as it’s original prefatory material such as the translator’s preface, genealogies, maps, and decorative title pages. 

Significance of the Super Deluxe “Facsimile”
Do not confuse these amazing photographic deluxe facsimiles with the small, inexpensive, "reprints" or with the smaller “Regular Size” Facsimile that we also offer. The popular Hendrickson "1611 Edition" mass-marketed Bible, for example, is NOT a true facsimile (nor do they claim it is). It is a totally new type setting in a more semi-modern Roman Style Type Face without the original woodcut decorative accents or beautiful Gothic Blackletter Style Typeface found in the original 1611 KJV.

Such reprints may maintain the ancient spellings, as well as the inclusion of the Apocrypha, but they do not LOOK exactly the same as an original 1611.  Similarly, the smaller “Regular Facsimile” may “look” the same photographically as an original 1611 KJV, but it does not maintain the massive size of the original First Edition 1611 King James Bible as only the Super Deluxe Facsimile can claim.   

Each page of THIS Super Deluxe Facsimile (or “Photocopied”) edition was computer-scanned from an original First Edition 1611 KJV, and maintained at the same original size, THEN printed on 100% acid-free, archival grade, heavy cream paper, just like the original 1611.

Super Deluxe Edition - Genuine Cowhide Leather
The “Super Deluxe” Facsimile is bound in the finest grade of full-grain, glove-soft, hand-tooled, exquisite genuine leather, wrapped over furniture-grade birch wood board, with extra-large spine hub-bands and gold spine stamping. The Smyth-Sewn binding also features extra heavy-duty stitching.  No detail was overlooked or spared in the creation of this bible. It's just like the real ones, visually IDENTICAL to an original 1611, except that it is absolutely brand new, and less than one-half-of-one-percent the cost of the last 1611 sold at auction. The "Super Deluxe" Edition is also a Numbered Limited Edition. Each copy comes with a certificate showing the numbered edition of the accompanying copy.

1611 Spelling Examples
These are subtle, but historically accurate details and signs that this is an original 1611 Facsimile, and merely "scratch the surface" of the treasures and distinctions to be found in this collector's edition 1611 King James Bible Super Deluxe Facsimile.

Unique 1611 King James Spelling examples include:
- "Heaven" as "Heauen" 
- "form" as "forme"
- "void" as "boyd"
- "upon" as "vpon"
- "and" as "aud"
