Douay-Rheims large print Bible
Not as large of print as I was expecting, I still need to use a magnifying glass. But aside from that issue, I love the Bible. I have been wanting the Douay-Rheims version for years.

Large Print Douay-Rheims Bible
This is a welcome edition of the classic DRB. It is well made and looks good on the shelf. I always appreciated the old paperback version (which for years was the "only game in town"), but I wore out multiple copies. This one is not only more aesthetically pleasing, but built to last. I especially like finally having a "red letter" edition of my favorite version of the Holy Scriptures. Recommended. Now all we need is a GIANT Print Edition (hint, hint).

Holy Bible
I like the Bible very much BUT, it is definitely NOT large print. While it's not quite as small as my old 1944 Reims Douay Bible, it's still much smaller than I expected. Since the description said LARGE print, I expected it to be large and easier for me to read. You definitely need to remove "large print" from the description!

Not large print
I bought this bc it said it was large print. Upon receiving it it looked like normal print. Way too small for me. I emailed Tan and they said it is “large” print. Type set 11. I’ve seen other Bibles that are much larger print, and I just cannot believe that they would even suggest that this would be large print. It’s normal printing. It is not large whatsoever. Very, very disappointed

Not a large print Bible
My leather RSV Bible from Ignatius is 14pt and I expected this Bible to be either a 13 or 14pt print but was disappointed with this print size. And I would have liked a leather cover rather than the vinyl. One of the ribbon markers also came out. In my opinion, it was not up to Tan’s usual high quality.

Print is not large
Nice Bible, but it wasn't what I wanted. The print size is the same as my Great Adventure Bible. I was looking for a Bible with larger font.
