€74,50

Original interwar edition from 1925 of Vertellingen uit den Bijbel – Uit het Nieuwe Testament by Rev. Fred. W. Rappold, published by Meulenhoff in Amsterdam.

This almost 100-year-old edition is bound in linen with its original paper dust jacket. The book contains several full-page color illustrations and black-and-white prints by Willem Hardenberg, characteristic of the 1920s style.

The typography, decorative initials, and classic spelling ("den Bijbel") give the book a distinct interwar character.

The book is in good condition for its age. The binding is sturdy, the text block complete, and the illustrations clear. There is normal age-related discoloration and light foxing, appropriate for a 1925 edition.

A representative antique book with a strong visual appeal – suitable as a collector's item, decorative piece, or as a historical religious work.
