I got one of these. It was either 2015 or 16. Folio Society went through their stock apparently and found a few of these stashed away in a corner. They thought they'd sold thermal out - seems not quite. When I ordered it, it said 'One left'. So I must have grabbed the very last one.

I just made my first Folio orders. Among them is the Eric Gill Four Gospels which is a beautiful presentation of Biblical material as well, illuminated through type design. The Holkham Bible is a fascinating treasure. Well done.

Really beautiful edition. Will look out for it secondhand. If you like illuminated manuscripts, you may want to look for George Braziller books on Books of Hours. The company no longer publishes but you can get them secondhand on EBay and the like for a reasonable price. Well, at least in the US. The Belles Heures illustrated by the Limbourg brothers is one title to look for. Thanks for the videos.

Criterion has avoided leather in their SEs lately I hope they come out with something special again soon.

Marvellous. How's your Latin? FS certainly know how to give their illuminated manuscripts exceptionally designed bindings. As an owner of the Liber Bestiarum not only do I back your recommendation for the Holkham Bible but virtually any of Folio's illuminated manuscripts. I don't speak or read Latin myself but that certainly doesn't reduce any of the enjoyment of owning one.
