To the left is a sign indicating "The First Yoruba Bible Translated by RT. REV. S.A. Crowther in 1845", printed in Great Britain by Lowe & Brydone. To the right is a sign indicating "The First English Bible Brought by The C.M.S Missionary REV. Henry Townsend in 1842". This artifact is located in the city of Badagry, Nigeria.
