Time to sort the bookshelves

This New Testament was presented to me on my christening . A helpful guide on both how to open a bible from “ Modern Bookbinding”and “How to Preserve a Bible “ was enclosed. The inside contains all the hand written details of my christening in careful calligraphy plus the name of the minister ( including his qualifications) . As a child I loved the wafer thin quality of the paper the gold leaf edging to the pages and the coloured illustrations within.
