This is a 1967 issue/edition Oxford Blue Genuine Morocco Leather New Scofield Reference Edition KJV Bible with the original box. Also includes the Companion to the New Scofield Reference Bible by E. Schuyler English (Mr. English was the editor in chief that led the revision committee to update the 1945 Old Scofield notes). I put Like New condition. It's really nice. The leather is still supple, even after 50+ years. The gilt is still unmarked. The pages are free of any marks or notations. Even the inserts are still in the Bible in the front and back cover. The ribbon marker appears to still be on the original page of printing. With that said, the Bible box has has some scuffs as you can see in the pictures. And the companion edition has some tears in the dust jacket (though the volume itself is in very good condition with no marks). Measures 9 1/4" x 6 1/8" x 1 1/4". So is a nice personal carrying size. Love the 1967 issue of the KJV New Scofield. There are several reasons why the '67 issue is favorite. First of course is the Scofield notes . . in this case updated and revised. Also, while I love the majesty of the KJV, there are words that we don't use as much today. The 1967 issue in some places has a more current word based on language or scholarship marked with | | in between, and the original KJV word or phrase is in the margin. Book introductions begin each book for historical and theological context. Center column cross and chain references. Concordance in back along w
