The Newe Testament as it was written
A big thanks to my friend at Bibles of the Past for this link! The Württembergische Landesbibliothek Stuttgart has scans of the 1526 Tyndale New Testament kept there. Click here to go directly to the image viewer. The cover has "1550" but the pages inside match the Hendrickson facsimile
of a 1526 edition.
You are correct, this is Tyndale's 1526 New Testament. The Stuttgart copy is the only complete copy. The copy in the British museum is missing the title page page. There is a third copy in England but missing leaves at both the beginning and end. The Hendrickson facsimile is a great book and a facsimile of the British Museum copy. The Stuttgart copy is also original in that the Initials have not be colored. Thanks for posting this.
