1611 KJV Bible with side notes,preface,introduction, and apocrypha can be oredered at CBD for 21.99 plus shipping. The reason I am making this known is that over the last few years much has been made over being KJVO and referencing the 1611 version. My bet is not 1 in 50 KJVO have an actual 1611 KJV in thier possession, and I am showing them where they can get it.:godisgood:

There are distinct differences if you care to be honest enough to admit them.:tonofbricks: -
All of the letters are facing the right direction but other than that it is claimed to be just as the original. By the way I have one myself. No reason to get upset or hostile.
-
I asked for clarification and honesty in the matter, if that is upsetting or being hostile then the serpent would concur with that notion.:smilewinkgrin: -
Then I owe you an apology. Like we say we cannot read body language on this board all we can do is read the words. So I do sincerely apologize and am sorry if I offended you in any way. POB:godisgood:

And here's an online facimile of it:

Thanks, I'm going to add that site to my favor:godisgood: ites.

Your welcome! When I found it I KNEW I had to bookmark it. It's so beautiful! -
Thanks - it was bookmarked on my other computer, but I was too lazy to go up and get it :) -
Is this a Nelson or Hendrickson reprint?
I have had the Nelson for years.
Somewhere online, I think it was linked from here on the BB, I have seen a photographic copy of a 1611 NT for about $25. I'd really like to get one of those! -
Thanks, POB. I shouldn't have (money is tight) but I ordered one. I've always wanted to have one handy to look through instead of having to go to the web.

and used to have the $40 copy from Henderson. I checked
a lot of the two and found they are the same copy.
Both these vendors changed from Gothic font to the
easier (for me) Roman font. By it not being a photocopy,
one can search it /electronic copy/. I also have the
electronic KJV1611 Edition from e-sword. The paper is
better - it had the Translator footnotes; the
electronic is better one can do word counts, search
through the test. I have the KJV1611 Edition from e-sword
parallel with a KJV1769 Edition + Strong's numbers (all
the memorizing I did & spelling I learned are from the
KJV1769 Edition). -
One difference between the Thomas Nelson 1611 reprint and the Hendrickson 1611 reprint is that the Hendrickson reprint includes introductory articles about the pre-1611 English Bibles, the 1611, and the later history of the KJV written by Alfred W. Pollard (pp. 5-53). -
My copy from CBD is from Hendrickson.
-
I gave my Hendrickson KJV1611 Edition reprint (Roman font)
away to a young KJVO would-be preacher boy.
I've still got the Nelson KJV1611 Edition reprint (Roman font).
I have found a couple of differences between the electronic
KJV1611 Edition of e-sword and the paper Nelson
KJV1611 Edition reprint. Those differences may be gone
by now cause I reported them to e-sword.
The electronic version does NOT have the translator
margin notes. I think they are part of the translation
and share the inerrancy of the original language
Bibles from which they were made. -
CBD now has a Geneva too if anyone is interested in adding that to their collection. This is fairly new at CBD.

Thanks I'll be getting that also.:godisgood:

I just got mine. The print is way too small. I suppose I can find my reading glasses (they're in some box I haven't checked since moving).
