The Cameo Edition is a classic Cambridge typesetting of the King
James Version, originally produced in the 1920s for letterpress
printing. It has been widely admired by generations of readers for its
solution to the Bible designer's dilemma of readable type in a
manageable size. Unavailable for a while, the Cameo Reference Edition is
re-issued in response to continued consumer interest, in a new range of
binding styles.
The reissue has offered an opportunity for the print image to be
enhanced, so while the text is presented in same familiar layout and the
original Petit Medieval Clarendon type, it is now sharper than in
printings of recent years.
The Bible comes with a concordance and 15 colour maps. The text has
pronunciation marks for names and the words of Christ on earth are
printed in red.
This edition is printed on India paper with art-gilt edges, includes a
presentation page and two ribbon markers and is bound in brown calfskin
leather.
