Our family Bible from the 1950s is exactly the one you have shown! I remember looking at the beautiful artwork before I could read! I still have that Bible and treasure it! I plan to read it cover to cover for the first time after I finish with Fr. Mike's Bible in a Year. Vivat Jesus!

I have both of these. The red one is my Moms. I started reading the NAB and RSV-CE. I started reading the Challoners and just got my D-R. I love the language and can’t wait to get started.

I read the Douay-Rheims Bible because I want to kniw what the church fathers say.

This Bible really is a work of art. I was very KJV oriented until I started comparing it to Doauy-Rheims. There's a similarly evocative language, but never feels like the pursuit of beauty obfuscates the clarity of Scripture. There's also the aspect of many translations with commentary being too focused on historical context, and forgetting the divine revelation aspect altogether. I most definitely sympathize with the need to go back to that tradition.

Many thanks for your very helpful review. I am curious to know about your father's bible. It looks absolutely beautiful. You mentioned commentary too. Can you give details on printers, commentators, etc as maybe it can be found secondhand. Thank you once again.

Thank you so much for doing this. I have an RSV2CE and go to Latin Mass. I've decided to read the Douay Reims. So many different publishers! I'm overwhelmed. Can you tell me if the Haydock version also contains Bishop Challoner's notes?

It does contain them. Hope I’m not too late with this reply!

If you attend Latin mass, there's a Vulgate/Douay-Rheims edition, it's black and gold. Still expensive, but one of the ones I'm looking forward to getting

Beautiful Bible. I liker the black and white but I think it would be awesome to have it in color. I think we Catholics should have our commentary (separate from Bible). I have only seen one commentary and its the "Commentary of the Sacred Scripture".

I used to be DRB-only, but then again, we have to acknowledge certain translation "difficulties" as with 1 Corinthians 15:51, which really is different from the Greek text. The RSV2CE is better in that regard (though, I simply wish it translated Genesis 3:15 with the traditional "ipsa").

I have the Challloner-Douay version. Is the Douay-Rheims better?

Haydock is great. But the binding is not. Mine is coming apart.

It's a shame that nobody still prints the previous edition. That one was softcover in two volumes. Based upon the thickness of the spine in the video, it is likely that the previous edition also used thicker paper. I cannot remember how much I paid for my copy around 20 years ago, but I suspect that it was less than the $150-$180 even adjusting for inflation; a lower price would help get this Bible into the hands of more people. Moreover, if the purpose of this Bible is study, the division of the book into an Old Testament volume and a New Testament volume seems to me to be more convenient for typology or checking the context of quotes from Scripture in the New Testament since one can have both volumes open side-by-side rather than having to flip back and forth.
