The Bible is now in the possession of Linda's husband, Neill Swindell and was owned by Neill's father, John Horace Swindell, (b. July 26, 1909; d. April 14, 1978)
The Bible has a hard back, and the spine was replaced with blue and white ticking. The first couple of pages are missing as are several in the back. The Bible measures about 10" x 12" x 2 3/4". The last page still in the book is pg. 766.
