A beautifully presented two volume set of the Holy Bible and the Book of Common Prayer. Both volumes uniformly bound in burgundy leatherette, with matching endpapers. Yapped and bevelled edges. All edges gilt. Silk ribbon markers bound in. The Bible has a colour plate frontispiece and seven further colour plate illustrations. The Book of Common Prayer has a colour plate frontispiece and five further colour plate illustrations. The Bible is Fontana 12mo. The Book of Common Prayer is Emerald 32mo. The Bible has a gift inscription inked on the first blank page, dated 1948, otherwise both volumes are in near fine condition without obvious flaws. Presented in a strong card golden box - which the publishers call a casket, with internal fittings and silk lever and tag. Also inside the box is a small ticket from the publisher indicating that this is casket no. 4 of a limited series. The box is marked and a little worn both internally and externally, gently rubbed on edges, with a few chips on edges. Beautiful set which would make an excellent gift or family pass-down.
