    Does anybody know anything about this Bible?

    It has the OT and Apocrypha, and a parallel NT with KJV 1611 and ERV 1881. I cannot find any date that confirms it's age. The latest printed date is a copyright date of 1882 on a picture. I am thinking this is an early edition of the ERV because the OT section ERV wasn't published until 1885 and this one only has the parallel in the NT and the binding says Revised Version 1881.

    I picked it up at a rummage sale in Rosehill, KS.

      Have you any solutions? I just now ran into this website. I've been searching for the history of this bible with little success. It has a record in the back as given to an individual in 1883. The engraving on the front is almost entirely exact. The more we looked we found minute details that were just slightly different. We're bonkers about research. When, who, where, meanings for inclusions, etc.!
