Light toning, occasional finger smudges, small inkspot to first text leaf (with offsetting to verso of title page). $9,500. * The first book printed in gold in England. Lowndes described it as "the most magnificent of all editions of the Magna Carta." The Westminster binder John Whittaker planned this book "for the display of a new branch of the art of printing." Although all are printed in gold, rarely are two copies alike. Some were printed on colored vellum and even jeweled, all have different levels of ornamentation. Some have a list of Barons. The present copy contains the text of Magna Carta only, printed on glazed card, and is richly bound. Lowndes, Bibliographer's Manual of English Literature (Revised edition, 1864) II:1450.
