The page touting their medal awards notes that the awards were made "for our illustrated editions of the Holy Bible". I would expect something like "Illustrated Edition" to be on the title page if yours was actually one of the award winning versions. Otherwise, I think that page about the awards is just a form of advertising for their more expensive editions.</p><p><br /></p><p>In our experience as used book sellers, such family Bibles rarely command significant prices. $50-100 if you are lucky.
