Civilian Bible?

[jgr1974]

I am wondering if anyone would be intersted in seeing a civilian Bible of the period reproduced??? These would be made here in America. The type I am thinking of is of the "wallet" type. Where a flap wraps around the pages for protection. I am wondering if anyone would be intersted?

Thank you for your input,

Jeremy

Over the years there have been several posts by individuals looking for period correct bibles for use in their impressions. Based on this, I would be willing to state that your product will definitely fill a niche within the hobby.

About 10 years ago some folks portraying the U.S. Sanitary Commission who used to have these. They were pocket-size, with a patriotic illustration in the interior (which I presume was based off an original, but I have no way to know). You might try seeing if they are still around.

I would defintely put my self on the list to order one...

There are several New Testaments that are offered through various sutlers, Milk Creek Mercantile and Fall Creek to name two...

they offer one for the North and one for the South

Dear Sir:

I agree with others that there is a definate niche for this to be reproduced. Just a point on "what is a Bible?" I've sold original Bibles in the past, when I came across some, and a lot of people seem to be confused about these.

When someone says "Bible" to me, I"m thinking of a book that has both Old and New Testaments in it. Others consider a "Bible" to be only the New Testament. There are also differences between a Protestant and Catholic Bible -- so if you find that a Protestant Bible takes off as a produce, please also consider reproducing a Catholic Bible, as that's an additional market.

There are a lot of people who would be interested in a reproduction Bible with both Old and New Testaments in it -- so I say "go for it!"
