Hieroglyphic Bibles: Their Origin and History, A Hitherto UNwritten Chapter of Bibliography with Facsimile Illustrations...

The first part (text) is illustrated with a frontispiece and numerous black and white facsimiles.

The second part is the "New Hieroglyphic Bible Told in Stories by Frederick A. Laing" The 184 page Bible is printed in color: the leaves (approximately 2 by 3 inches) are mounted four to a page on heavy stock attached to linen guards.

Traces of soil to the top and bottom edges of the book, else this is in near fine condition and is indeed a very nice copy. With the scarce printed linen dustwrapper: blue linen printed in black and mounted to card stock. The jacket is a bit soiled, but still quite presentable and a very early exemplar of a printed cloth dustwrapper.
