BIBLIA SACRA.
Facsimile edition. Printed in an edition limited to 1000 numbered copies of which 996 were for sale. This edition is the first ever printed in the United States. It reproduces a copy considered by authorities to be one of the most beautifully illuminated of the forty-seven copies known to exist. It derives from the Insel Verlag edition which was based on the copy in the Koniglichen Bibliothek in Berlin, and the copy in the Standischen Landesbibliothek in Fulda. The text pages have been printed by lithography in red, blue and black. There are also about 100 illuminated pages finely printed by sheet-fed gravure. The paper used is 100 percent rag content made especially for this edition.
