| A leaf from the very first press run of the original
King James Bible: literally printed in the year 1611 in London,
England… these leaves are 393 years old. For many people, the
English language Bible as we know it today IS the King James Bible,
and there is no printing of the King James Bible even ONE year older
than these 1611 leaves. They come with a beautiful Certificate of
Authenticity printed on marbleized cardstock. The King James Bible
remains the greatest book in the English language, and the
best-selling book of all time. Whether framed and displayed in your
home, or given as a wonderfully unique gift: these ancient original
treasures are so large and beautifully typeset as to command the
attention they deserve. They really cause people to stop and stare
in awe… and sometimes in disbelief that it could possibly be the
real thing. It is!
These HUGE “Pulpit Folio” size leaves measure approximately 15 to 16
inches tall by 10 to11 inches wide... you can read them from
half-way across the room. They are our largest, most beautiful, and
most popular Bible leaves. Printed on 100% rag cotton linen sheet,
not wood-pulp paper like books today; they remain in excellent
condition… even after nearly 400 years. Each leaf is a unique piece
of ancient artwork, carefully produced one-at-a-time by the King’s
printers using a movable-type press, and later bound together into
whole Bibles, and chained to every church pulpit in England. These
genuine original antiquities are among the most rare and precious
pieces of our history and our Christian heritage.
We offer these 1611 King James Pulpit Folio First Edition Bible
Leaves for considerably less than the “$5,000 each” that both Pat
Robertson’s 700 Club and John Hagee Ministries have been selling
them for on National Television for many years! We offer those SAME
leaves at under $300, and the extremely elaborate Title Pages (first
chapter of a book) start at under $600. This is simply one of the
most impressive things you could possibly have hanging on the wall
in your home. People often call us back to tell us how the gift of
one of these 1611 King James Bible Leaves brought the recipient of
the gift to tears. Imagine… having a favorite passage of scripture
from the first printing of the most printed book in the world: The
King James Bible of 1611. Call today to see if your favorite passage
of scripture is available.
