Ray Pepper was in the United States Army Air Forces.
June 17, 1944 he purchased this 1803 Bible in England.
He wrote on the bookplate -
"Property of -
Ray E Pepper, USAAF
Purchased in England June 17 1944
for 3S. 6d. or about 70 cents."
The leather, the embossing, the paper, the message
- everything about this book is beautiful.
