Dear, small, 1873 New Testament Bible in much loved condition. It is 2-3/8″ x 3-3/4″ and is embossed leather over board. The leather has cracked and there is a 1/2″ section missing on the spine. The front has partially come undone, but is still hanging on. The pages have yellowed.
The inscription on the back of the front cover is very hard to read, but I can make out:
Presented To ______ Clecker(?)
By
_______ _______
1875 M.K.S.
There is an inscription on the back of the back cover that reads:
1997
