Foochow Colloquial Bible——来自加州朋友的信
Hello, GnuDoyng
I collect books as a hobby, and I came across your web-site while researching an interesting and unusual old book: The Foochow Colloquial Bible, published by the British and Foreign Bible Society, 1908. It has three colored maps which have Chinese characters exclusively. I found the Old Testament only; nicely bound in black leather with the title in gilt on the front cover, along with the initials MYH, or MYJ, maybe, I don't have it in front of me right now. It is in great condition.
You stated on your web-page that you are a bibliophile, so you can understand my curiosity about books, and why I would have a book that I cannot read!
Can you tell me anything about it? I've searched for it on the worldcat.com web-site, and have found only one copy, and I think that may be on microform only.
Thanks for your time and I hope to hear from you. Anything you could tell me about it would be appreciated.
Best regards from California,
