Question & Answer Altemus Bibles

Q: This is the altemus bible i own, which one is it? if you happen to know, its picture b10 in ur bible listings.

A: Currently I have documented 59 different Altemus Bible covers. Altemus published Bibles between the early 1870’s and the turn of the century.

The Bible shown here has been labeled B10. There were 12 different Bible editions. B10 Bible covers have been seen with the New Popular Edition and the Cheap Pictorial Edition. The features and contents within the Bible are what distinguishes the different editions.

The New Popular Edition and the Cheap Pictorial Editions do not have:

Bible History and Analysis
Cyclopedia of the Bible
Dictionary of Names
Notes and commentary by Rev. Walter McGilvray

Other Altemus Bibles do have these features. To learn more about Altemus Bibles see See http://henryaltemus.com/bibles/bibles.htm
