That's a problematic title, considering this Gutenberg bible is neither the oldest nor the most expensive book on the planet. The Mormon Church spent $35 million on a printer's manuscript of The Book Of Mormon in 2017. [1] Bill Gates spent ~$30 million on Da Vinci's Codex Leicester in 1994, which would be around $54 million today. Even talking about printed works, The Bay Psalm Book was sold for $14.2 million in 2013. Depending on your definition of "book", the oldest known books are things like The Etruscan Gold Book, The Nag Hammadi codices, the St Cuthbert Gospel, etc. [1] https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/mormon-church-drops-35-million-on-printers-manuscript-of-the-book-of-mormon_us_59c42a12e4b06ddf45f6b427 https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/mormon-church-drops-35-...
