Bicentennial of the Restoration of the Gospel, Reprint of the 1830 Book of Mormon, 1833 Book of Commandments and the 1835 Collection of Sacred Hymns
In recognition of the 200th Anniversary of the Restoration of the Gospel, I independently purchased 48 copies of a reprint of the 1830 Book of Mormon, 1833 Book of Commandments and the 1835 Collection of Sacred Hymns, and I would like to offer them at my cost of $21.
35 for the set.
I offered these books just recently via a Facebook post, and they were very well received.
Due to the volume I purchased in this round, the publisher offered me much more favorable pricing than my earlier effort.
1830 Book of Mormon is bound in a durable antique brown leatherette, matching the style of the original book.
The text on the label has been enlarged to be seen from further away.
The pages are Smyth sewn on 16 page gatherings or signatures which allows durability and offers a more lay flat book.
1833 Book of Commandments.
So few copies of this book exist and all have different bindings.
The publisher, Cumorah Land Press, used the same antique brown and borrowed elements from other early Church books for the design of the front and back of the book.
This replica features the more elaborate title page of the two that were produced.
The printing press was destroyed in Zion Missouri while the book was being type set, so the originals end on page 160 mid-revelation.
The publisher researched what revelations were available in church publications at the time and has included 30 more pages that were prepared for printing in 1833 along with the witness page, a testimony of the revelations received by the Prophet Joseph Smith.
This is the first time that these have been included along with the original Book of Commandments.
The Cumorah Land Press has matched as perfectly as possible the font and original style throughout the book.
1835 Collection of Sacred Hymns is bound in antique brown leatherette replicating gold tooling on front and back cover found on originals along with marbled end sheets.
This book is dedicated to the memory of Emma Hale Smith.
