Published in 1722 by John Baskett.
(John Baskett (1664-1742), a man of significant influence in the world of printing. He and his supporters wanted to improve both the quality and the appearance of the Bibles being printed. The idea was to produce a folio edition of the King James Bible that would reflect the decisions made by the original translators that had somehow become lost in the intervening years. This Bible would be a presentation piece for use in churches and the homes of the aristocracy. Some of the obsolete language would be added into a glossary. It was meant to be a very special print run. To this end Baskett had new decorative initials made as well as new engraved plates. Baskett’s Vinegar Bible is generally acknowledged as the most magnificent Bible printed in England. The Vinegar Bible gets its name from the most famous of the errors in the 1717 printing. The headline of Luke 20 reads, “the parable of the vinegar” (instead of vineyard).
This Bible is the corrected version.)THE HOLY BIBLE, Old and New Testaments, London, John Baskett, 1722, folio, title O.T. missing and replaced by a later leaf, title page to N.T is present. Full 19th Century morocco, marbled end pages, slight foxing, spotting. Text crisp and easy to read. Margins good. See all photos and read entire description for condition.

AN EXTREMELY SCARCE BLACKBURN IMPRINT, with notes and annotations by a variety of theologians such as Wesley, Tillotson, Grotius, Whitby, and numerous others. Printing in Blackburn had previously been mostly limited to broadsides or small pamphlets until a small number of more ambitious printers, such as Hemingway and Nuttall, came along and produced several large books at the end of the 1700s. This was an attempt at putting Blackburn on the map in terms of printing/publishing. But in the early 1800s it became easier for local booksellers to procure the latest printings from London; thus, Blackburn would never become a hub for printers.
