Over all the gold gild pages are excellent. There is some fauxing to be expected with age on the pages. No tears found. Spine amazingly tight. The front cover has a few scuffs as seen in picture. You will be amazed, this has been well preserved in a home. No musty smells. The Engravings and script are breath taking.
No pen or pencil writing found in or on this book.
There is a section that has some ribbons and death pham-let of two decedents, relation to bible is unknown to me. Left as found. I do not believe the ribbons were with this bible originally.
Please ask any questions.
