This I understand is a 2nd edition, or the 'Whig Bible'. It has been in various branches of our family for generations, and has several written-in fly-leaves. It is almost complete & in excellent condition, having been professionally rebound in the 1950's. The Curator of books at the British Museum (in the 1950's) said that it is 'in far better condition than ours'. I have a collation in my possession. Family circumstances have changed in recent times, and as there are only about six known copies - British Museum, Bodleian Library Oxford, New York Public Library, Lambeth Palace, Glasgow University & Leicester University - leaving ours as the only one in private ownership, the family are wondering how it could be sold (if a suitable amount could be raised) & whether perhaps the Calvin Institute would be interested, or some other Institution. Perhaps you would kindly give me some ideas?
