the Lymans into thinking at first that they had a Gutenberg The Eggen stein has 45 lines of a large type to a double column page compared to the Gutenberg's 42 lines and the same type and double column The Bible measuring 12 by 16 inches and 4 inches thick apparently was in a manuscript form until about 1785 when it was bound probably in England in a dark brown leather binding The binder thoughtlessly cropped some of the pages to fit the size of the binding thereby cutting part of the titles of the books at the top of the pages The first part of the ancient publication is a prologue and the first page is illuminated in a floral design Printed material was first given this fancy handiwork by Gutenberg and other early-day printers to give the effect of a hand-copied manuscript so as to disguise their wonderous invention $600 a Page A single page from a Gutenberg Bible incidentally has brought as much as $600 on the collectors' market said Lyman and the last evaluation of a complete Gutenberg was estimated to be $1 million Although n0t as valuable as a Gutenberg the Eggenstein's value nevertheless is set at several thousand dollars Eggenstein printed 18 of hli Latin
