Other images reportedly engraved by Herbert Bourne
Substantially reliable references exist that indicate Bourne's engravings also appear in these two volumes. I have never located either, so I cannot personally confirm.
| Engravers reported: | Artists reported: |
| Charles Rolls | William Hilton |
| ? Edwards | Henry LeJeune |
| Charles Henry Jeens | William Henry Bartlett |
| Charles Cousen | William Hamilton |
| W. West | John Singleton Copley |
| Herbert Bourne | Paul Falconer Poole |
| William Holl | Peter Paul Rubens |
| William Greatback |
However, I have discovered there are two, and possibly more, editions
of the Bible that have identical title, date, page numbers, and contributors.
The most common version (by William Collins, Glasgow) does NOT include
Bourne. In fact, the illustrations in the Yale edition and the Collins
edition are completely different. It also appears (although I cannot confirm
100%) there is a third volume replete with many maps but apparently no
engravings. The Collins edition includes the following illustrations:
| Old Testament: | New testament: |
| Church of the Holy Sepulchre (E. Radclyffe, inside front) | Bethlehem (E. Radclyffe, after pg 4) |
| Jerusalem from Scopus (E. Radclyffe, title page) | Nazareth (J. Bower, after pg 30) |

| Plains El-Rahah - Mt. Sinai (J. Bower, after pg 104 ) | Tiberias (E. Radclyffe, after pg 40) |
| Hebron (E. Radclyffe, after pg 168) | Bethany (R. Dawson, after pg 54) |
| The River Jordan (R. Dawson, after pg 48) | Via Dolorosa, Jerusalem, after pg 60) |
| Kirjath - Jearim (A. Willmore, after pg 258) | Field of the Shephards at Bethlehem (W. Gellatly, after pg 66) |
| Nablous (unattributed, after pg 280) | Jericho (J. Bower, after pg 92) |
| Ramleh (J. Brodie, after pg 296) | Pool of Bethesda and Church of St Anne (E. Radclyffe, after pg 108) |
| Shiloh (J. Brodie, after pg 302) | Lydda (R. Dawson, after pg 144) |
| Tower of David and Anglican Church (D. Mitchell, after pg 342) | Jaffa (E. Radclyffe, after pg 146) |
