Hans Steinbrener was established in 1855, and held a Royal warrant to publish almanacs and religious texts in different European languages. Taking advantage of the new technique of photo-reduction Steinbrenner printed these qu'rans from the late 1890s-1960s in Vimperk, or Winterberg, Czech Republic. The text, endpapers and bindings differ from the equivalent Bryce Koran. They became widely distributed across America and Europe but the earlier examples are less common.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003e |\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e        \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Camden Lock Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56164070064507,"sku":"F26.128","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0430\/3313\/3212\/files\/P3208396.jpg?v=1774010649","url":"https:\/\/camdenlockbooks.com\/products\/koran-quran-quran-steinbrener-hans-vimperk-or-winterberg-czech-republic-circa-1935","provider":"Camden Lock Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
