The first printed page is entitled "To the Reader", as and is in very poor condition with old cellotape and around half the page is lost. Last printed page is again only partially there but does end FINIS. The title page of the enw testament is present but has been pasted down onto card. The bible has not been collated and is sold as probably incomplete. The first page of the book of Genesis/first book of Moses is present. The first page of Matthew is also present. The last page of the book of revelation is present but only about half still there. Some of the loose pages are lossely inserts in between sheets of paper but most are still atleast partially attached to the binding. The New Testament title page is dated 1611 but we can not guarantee that it is original although there does not seem to be any reason why it should not be. The buyer would need to satisfy themselves in this regard.
