This Old Bible is forsale.
It was purchased a number of years back as the purchaser is both a collector
of Bibles and interested in Genealogy. Since learning of the Genealogy
within the purchaser is now making this information available to all the
family members here FREE!. Since the Bible was purchased it is being offered,
hopefully to a family member, for the price of $45. plus S&H. It is
a very heavy made Bible but like all old leather and board Bibles it has
begun to come loose at the spine. Overall it is still in very good condition.
