Abstract: This image is from a collection created by Etta Hanson and given to the College in 1954. All items are from Otto Ege's estate. The leaf was contained and mounted in a mat created by Otto Ege, as were all other leaves in this collection. There is a typed description at the bottom of the mat, which reads: "Sir D. Hunter Blair and J. Bruce, Edinburgh. A special issue of the Bible, consisting of twenty-five copies only. Dibdin’s Library Companion calls this “a more beautiful book than the vaunted diamond-letter Bible of Richelieu.” (Darlow and Moule 1019)"
