5B  New Testament printed in 1872, bound in 1875

Bound in Olive wood from The Mount of Olives in 1872 as souvenir item

Note

The New Testament printed at Oxford in 1872 is most likely an English edition of the King James Version, published by the esteemed Oxford University Press. Known for its high-quality printing and scholarly accuracy, this edition would typically feature a classic double-column layout, traditional serif typeface, and possibly marginal notes or cross-references. Depending on the binding—ranging from plain cloth to ornate leather with gilt edges—its value today can vary, though it holds more historical than monetary worth unless it's in pristine condition or part of a rare edition. Such a volume reflects the enduring legacy of 19th-century religious publishing in England.
