With Nikud and Cantillation points. Four parts in one volume. Divisional titles. Opening word of each Book within decorative woodcut border. A Fine Wide Margined Copy. Formerly in the Valmadonna Trust Library.
ff. 526, (of 528, title and f. 2 provided in facsimile). Few light stains in places, scattered numerical marginalia on a few leaves, first two divisional titles rebacked, previous owner's stamp in a few places. Modern elegant blind-ruled and tooled chestnut morocco, spine in compartments with gilt title and date, housed in slipcase. Thick 4to Vinograd, Venice 100 & 149; Haberman, Bomberg 95 & 149; Darlow & Moule 5086.


Venice: Daniel Bomberg 1528 & 1533

The year of publication on the title-page is 1533, whilst the colophon bears the year 1528. The consensus bibliographers have reached is that completion of the 1533 Bible past Part II was aborted and instead Parts III-IV remaining from the 1525-8 edition were utilized to complete the edition entire.


For another (complete) copy of this rare Bomberg edition, see Kestenbaum Sale 19, Lot 39.
