A magic lantern slide circa 1900. Religious slides . The chained bible. Although called the Great Bible because of its large size, it is known by several other names as well: the Cromwell Bible, since Thomas Cromwell directed its publication; Whitchurch's Bible after its first English printer; the Chained Bible, since it was chained to prevent removal from the church. It has less accurately been termed Cranmer's Bible, since although Thomas Cranmer was not responsible for the translation, a preface by him appeared in the second edition. From the Bible Collection of the University of St Andrews. Genre Dates (Provenance) -- Scotland -- St. Andrews -- 17th century. Stained calf bindings (Bindings) -- Scotland -- St. Andrews -- 16th century. Chained bindings (Binding) -- Scotland -- St. Andrews -- 16th century.
