The Bible’s are gorgeous! I wish I could find some like that! ❤ The other old books are cool too! I love the look of old and worn books! One lucky gal! ❤ my favorites were them all!😂 I’d never be able to let them go.
Hi Mandy! Oh I just love my old bibles so much.. but I've yet to even see one with the clasp! I would probably literally freak out if i came across one!😄 I don't even come across the minis, just found a few smaller chunky ones. Girl yes the bibles totally excite me! The old leather back is like the one i have & same color brown, my pride & joy! Its the one that has been written in.. to a sister from her brother on 12/25/1879. Love the pages on the really thick Holy Bible! I guess i'm weird too!😁 Ok I'm putting it out there..i need bibles with clasps!!🙌🏻 That's one of the most gorgeous stacks!😮 Oh definitely better than flowers.. any day! The very old arithmetic book is awesome too! Ohhh the silver lute would be beautiful with my old hymnals & piano books!😮 I don't think there's anyone that had more beautiful books than you gf! I really want to find some hymnals as old as the one you have! I have several of the black leather bibles from the 1920’s. Such an amazing haul! Love them all! So gorgeous! Thanks for sharing! Have A blessed week!
I can relate 100% with your appreciation for the beautiful brown and black leather books. I'm also drawn to them and now are very very hard to find. I also have a couple with the metal clasps......they are just beautiful and bookshelves displaying a collection of them is an absolute work of art. So, if that's weird then I sign me up. LOL. The one school book you showed looks like a McGuffey's Speller...I have the early McGuffey's Readers (First-Fifth)...the early books used in one room school houses. My favorite of what you got today was the thick chunky brown leather small one.
Mandy, my favorite is not a book - it’s YOU! I love your excitement and enthusiasm when you talk about your gorgeous antique books. I have a few small antique bibles and lots of other antique books. I love them! ❤❤
I found a bowl this weekend that reminded me of you! It was an Old Curiosity Shop bowl that was green and white but it was stained and crazed. For $6 I had to grab it. I love the tiny old books!
Recently I bought a small book from 1850 that read Methodist hymns. It was tan that looked crazed like ironstone. It was songs and sermons. Just 10 bucks.
I love the Bible collection. I have never found an antique Bible in any of the thrift shops here in the north. Every once in a while, I will find a modern paperback Bible, but they don’t interest me.
I love the Psalms of David! So beautiful. I think it's my favorite!

I bought a Bible from the 1800's at a garage sale for a dollar.
