Up for sale is a gigantic pulpit Bible published by Oxford University Press, 1897. Measures at 19" x 13" x 4". Some dropped corners, some creases on early/title pages, 1"tear bottom of spine (see last photo) and some smaller tears top of spine. Gilded page edges. 

Must've been insanely expensive in 1897; I found an 1918 trade catalog advertising the "Great Primer Demy Folio" pulpit Bible in red leather listed for $85 ($1800 today).

 

THE FOLLOWING IS BOILERPLATE LANGUAGE INCLUDED IN ALL OF MY BOOK LISTINGS. Item specific condition notes will be included below if they differ from this general description.

Please examine photos closely to assess condition. Book may have mild "old book smell" and shelf/storage wear difficult to see in photos. There may be some pencil marks/underlining on inside pages, but I do quickly scan early pages and will note if I find anything. Unless particularly valuable/interesting, I do not sell books below "good" condition. If

Unless otherwise requested, book will be shipped inside a rigid cardboard box with necessary padding and all seams sealed with packing tape. Shipping is via USPS Media Mail. If you require expedited shipping, USPS Priority Mail is also available for an added cost.

For Buy-It-Now auctions, I encourage you to make offers. I fairly consider how long it has been listed, historical sale prices, and quantity of watchers/views when considering an offer.
