    I want to let everyone know that there is a quality printing of the KJV with the Anglican deuterocanon by Penguin, which can be found here:
    https://www.amazon.com/Bible-Penguin-Classics/dp/0141441518

    It's an 8 inch long, 5 inch wide paperback with a 2 inch thickness, but it's probably the best example of a full KJV bible at an affordable price right now. Hendrickson produces a hardcover fascimile of the 1611 original with the apocrypha, but I am not too savvy about the font. I am probably going to buy the Penguin KJV soon. Otherwise, you'll need to buy the Apocrypha separately, which can be bought as a $10 slim hardcover volume by Cambridge.

    As for the Penguin version, I quite like the artwork used for the cover. It's stylish.

    I would honestly rather have this than the one you see in my avatar, which, while pretty on the eyes, is a very heavy, cumbersome volume and I am not honestly that fond of unconventional, 'fine' bindings. It looks good on the shelf, but I am not that big on decorations of this sort, which is why I rarely read it.

    I have 1611 KJV that came out at its 400th Anniversary of the KJV. I am gong to go check and see if it has deutercanonical books.
