Westminster Larger Catechism Manuscript Transcriptions | Westminster Letter Press
I received my Regular edition today. It's gorgeous and I can't even imagine how nice the other variants are. This will be a treasured resource. Some of you are aware that Chris Coldwell has long been researching a critical text for this work. The man is a workhorse and, by all rights, could probably earn a Doctorate for the primary research he has done in this area.
I highly recommend you jump on this before he runs out of copies of this print. Chris has long sold some fantastic works at Naphtali Press. He has recently opened another branch in Westminster Letterpress focusing on fine letterpress reprints. I have a copy of the Solemn League and Covenant that is of beautiful quality that I intend to frame and hang in a place of prominence in my home.
