William F. Fells and Magdaline Gellshall Bible

This auction is for an Antique German Bible. The Bible is written in German, and the back of the Bible has a small Photo Album of a Nineteenth Century Family from Reading Pennsylvania (where the old photographs were taken). There are many illustrations in the bible,and a few items hidden between the pages: there was a lock of hair in a piece of folded-up newspaper, a page with embossed writing, that appears to be boston line type, which was used in this country for the blind before braille became the standard, and a map of Washington D.C. from 1897. There is also a Marriage Certificate that is part of the Bible, declaring William F. Fells and Magdaline Gellshall were married on Christmas day, 1847 by R. J. Miller. There is also a page of Births and Deaths, with names written on the pages. There are many, many, pages with pictures, illustrations, teaching and educational pictorials.
