While the title page does not state a year, several historical clues identify its age, specifically The Publisher's imprint "Humphrey Milford / Oxford University Press.”

Sir Humphrey Milford was the head of Oxford University Press's London operations from 1913 to 1945. Any Bible with his name on the title page must have been printed within this window. 

Uncredited/ Anonymous Editor: E.W. Bullinger

The title page purposely omits E.W. Bullinger's name. This was done intentionally so the work would "commend itself, on its own merits" rather than be associated with a single individual. Bullinger himself passed away in 1913, just as these parts were being disseminated by Milford at Oxford. 

Publisher: Humphrey Milford, Oxford University Press. London, New York, Toronto & Melbourne.
