St John Papyrus 52 Fragment The Oldest New Testament Piece Papyrus Replica Relic

I honestly wasn’t expecting too much when I ordered this, and was very impressed with the high quality! The texture of the papyrus is especially well done, and I love how well the two “halves” fit together back-to-back. The supplemental material was also a nice touch.This reproduction is clearly done by someone who cares about the quality of their work. I couldn’t be happier with it.

I purchased this for the papyrus replica, which looks great. After seeing it used in another review, I'm also ordering a magnet photo frame for display. If you're at all familiar with P52, or ancient Biblical fragments and transmission in general, this is a neat little display, and would make for great conversation.In additional to the fragment, I was pleasantly surprised by the accompanying documentation, including a reprint of an old newspaper article. These are excellent additions to the product itself.I'm very glad I purchased this.

Well executed on all levels. The fragment is amazing, the presentation, packaging and documentation are very professional. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend and plan on buying other items from seller.

I purchased a copy of these years ago. The person creating these is taking a lot more care to make them more authentic.

I have mixed feelings about this order. I'm keeping it, and I will display it. It is a great point of conversation and tactile for showing people a sense of P52. However, the product isn't actually printed on both sides as P52 is, and the back side of each the papyrus is much lighter than than the front. It looks as if somehow they have actually printed the P52 image on papyrus...which I want to know how they did it. However, it makes displaying them or looking at them not feel the same as the actually manuscript. In addition, my measures about 3 inches by 4.5 inches, which is an inch wider and longer than the actual manuscript. It substantially changes the sense of the original's size.In the pics you can see the lighter background of the product's papyrus as well as the size comparison between the actual size of P52 and the product.

The media could not be loaded. I bought a magnetic picture frame for it and it looks pretty incredible. I just lined up the two pieces back to back and shut them in the magnetic frame. I display it in my office. *The video is a clip that I used to show it to my sister.

When you buy this you get both sides of the fragment. So I put them back to back and mounted it between two pieces of glass in a open frame. Very authentic looking. It gives me a great opportunity to talk about reliability of the bible.

This is a wonderful learning tool for our Mens Discipleship group. Many of us may not have the financial resources to travel and see the original fragments at John Rylands University Library. By providing a replica fragment of John’s narrative of what us Christians call the passion week. Allows myself to draw a truer image, as we describe the early Christian movement through the Roman Empire.
