KJV 1611 Affordable Alternative
We went shopping for the girls some summer clothes for Falls Creek last night in Muskogee. At the Walmart, I found a copy of the KJV 1611 400 Anniversary Edition for $4.96!
Now, it is EXTREMELY important to note that it isn't the greatest copy in the world. In fact, it isn't even complete.
It does provide pages and pages of the original indices, but it doesn't contain the Apocrypha, like the original.
It appears to have been photocopied, page by page and bound in a fairly cheap binding. It is much smaller than the original.
Also, I had to search through their big box to find one without some problems. The first one I selected, already had a broken binding near the base of the spine.
The second one I selected was inserted into the binding upside down; that is, if you open the book up regularly, you had to turn it upside down to read it.
I looked through several of them and saw that particular printing error.
In any case, it is quite a coup to be able to find a photocopy of the original for less than $5!
