Lithographica Biblica

In the latter part of the 19th century there were many illustrated Bibles. One of these was a 35-part series (25 cents each) called The Child’s Bible with 220 New and Original Illustrations and published by Cassell, Petter & Galpin of New York in the 1870s. A fuller version of the illustrations was sold as a single book and parts of that are documented online. My grandmother ended up with several of the series and I reproduce above and below two of the illustrations.
