It's a First Edition 7 volume folio with 530 plates in top condition - this copy has a engraved bookplate dedicating it as a gift from Pierpont Morgan. As in, the Pierpont Morgan who had the original Maciejowski Bible.
Abe does have stupid prices listed. Eg, Matt bought me paper pretties from my coming birthday. It cost him £116.09 from Amazon. I've seen the same set at £ 567.00.
Actually, if you want to scare yourself, just type "Harry Potter" into Abe and list by highest price first.
... If you ever come to visit me here, I will have to take you into the British Library, and then whisk you across the water to the Chester Beatty Library in Dublin. That collection of books and manuscripts is so stunningly beautiful.
