 These are some really old books that were given to me a while back. The one in the foreground that is open has the first couple pages missing, so I don't know the exact copy-write date, however, the old bible that I used as a prop in the background has a copy-write in the 1840's. I set this up on one of my old trunks and used an old jug and candle lamp in the background as well.

My father used to collect antiques, he had a jug like that one. Nice set up but I find the sepia treatment a bit flat.
