What's it worth? Appraisal of antique Germanic Bible 1810
Trish asks;
What is my antique Bible worth?




AW says; This is a nice Germanic edition of the Holy Bible. Dated 1810 makes it an antique for sure, but we have to remember this is the Bible we’re talking about, and since it’s a European edition, and their publishing history goes back much farther than that of the US, it’s not as rare as a US edition.
The hard leather cover seems to be in tact, albeit there is a binding gap between the cover and the frontispiece. Unless you indicate otherwise, it seems to be intact and in otherwise good condition.
