About This Item
1807 SECRET Fore-Edge Painting ART Captain John Smith America New England MAP
An incredible, stunning, and highly desirable early 19th-century Book of Common Prayer! While many examples of this Book of Common Prayer are available from this era, few, if any, are as coveted as this example. This 1807 printing features a hidden fore-edge painting only revealed when the pages are fanned. The secret painting depicts a portrait of Captain John Smith and a map of the New World – a beautifully colored, detailed painting.
