OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.
"In our opinion, the Christian public generally will feel under great
obligations to the publishers of this work for the beautiful taste,
arrangement, and delicate neatness with which they have got it out. The
intrinsic merit of the Bible recommends itself; it needs no tinsel ornament
to adorn its sacred pages. In this edition every superfluous ornament has
been avoided, and we have presented us a perfectly chaste specimen of the
Bible, without note or comment. It appears to be just what is needed in
every family--'the _unsophisticated_ word of God.'
"The size is quarto, printed with beautiful type, on white, sized vellum
paper, of the finest texture and most beautiful surface. The publishers
seem to have been solicitous to make a perfectly unique book, and they have
accomplished the object very successfully. We trust that a liberal
community will afford them ample remuneration for all the expense and
outlay they have necessarily incurred in its publication. It is a standard
Bible.
"The publishers are Messrs. Lippincott, Grambo & Co., No. 14 North Fourth
street, Philadelphia."--_Baptist Record._
"A beautiful quarto edition of the Bible, by L., G. & Co. Nothing can
exceed the type in clearness and beauty; the paper is of the finest
texture, and the whole execution is exceedingly neat. No illustrations or
ornamental type are used. Those who prefer a Bible executed in perfect
simplicity, yet elegance of style, without adornment, will probably never
find one more to their taste."--_M. Magazine_.
