This family bible has the inscription "Presented to Miss Georgiana Binder" by "Pottstown PA...October 10, 1884".

The very last pages are for photos and reads "Family Portraits". There is one page to hold two large photos(one in front and one in back) and then a page that would hold 8 smaller ones (four on each side). There are two smaller photos: a small cardboard backed one of a girl, and opposite a photograph on metal (tintype?) of a boy.
