The owner of an Irish hotel is set to sell a book described as the most influential in history for a fee of up to $50 million at an auction in May.
What is being advertised as the world's oldest Hebrew Bible is scheduled for auction this May in New York and could sell for up to $50 million, according to the broker featuring the collectible.
Estimated to be more than 1,000 years old, the oldest and most complete Hebrew Bible is on course to break a stunning record when it goes up for auction this spring.
