Leather Bound Holy Bible from 1803. Some pages have been torn but 99% are still intact. The book measures 11 x 10 x 3. This book is in usable condition.
I don't know anything about this Bible. We found it among my father's personal items after his death. He never said anything about it to us and we don't know how he came to have it.
