[QUOTE="Tahmoor girl, post: 4264596, member: 20883"]If you look closely, the "Entered at Stationers Hall" is not exactly horizontal. Its parallel with the written notes, but neither is parallel on the page, so my guess it is a stamp. It's not just the Bible that was written on that I think is interesting, it's the written notes. The preface mentions experts and glergymen, not "to be read in church", and I haven't been able to find an exact match on ebay with such wide margins. If they are the notes are just by a religious student who went to Bible study then wanted to have his notes stamped at the Stationers Hall, then an expert will tell me that. I'll get a free evaluation by 'What's is Worth?', not at a Site that buys old books and is more likely to say its just a cheap Bible. If it's "just a cheap Bible", then I'll accept that. At least I'll know exactly what to advertise it as. I have no one to pass it on to, and only keep in touch with one cousin on Dad's side older than me who shares the same grandmother but wasn't related to Pop.[/QUOTE]
