ABOUT US
Message from the Director of Marketing
Welcome!
I hope you will enjoy browsing through our online showroom. As the world’s
largest dealer of rare and antique Bibles, and the world’s largest
restorer of ancient Bibles, we strive to provide you with a level of
quality
and selection available nowhere else. Through our ongoing restoration work,
we are preserving the oldest copies of God’s Word for future generations.
Our rare and antique Bibles are all “investment-grade”, typically
appreciating 15 to 25% annually. In this volatile age where the masses
are blindly betting their life savings and retirement funds on the last
socially acceptable form of gambling – the stock market –
and taking huge loses, while being assured “not to worry”…
we offer a more sensible alternative for portfolio diversification. Investment-grade
ancient Bibles do not ever go “down” in value or have a “bad
year”… and their rate of appreciation quietly outpaces the
stock market in all but its most bullish of years. How ironic that investing
in the ancient, original printings of God’s Word would turn out
to be the “best kept secret” in the investment world!
 If we were selling a stock that could not go down, and rose
double-digits every year… how many shares would you buy?
Antiquarian Bibles are much like California coastline real estate…
“they aren’t making any more”, and the demand only goes
up each year. Fewer than ten years ago, for example, First Edition 1611
King James Bibles were selling for under $40,000. Five years ago it was
$125,000. Today some are fetching over $400,000. If that same 25%+ appreciation
continues for only the next five years, (as it has for the past ten)…
do the math… they would be selling for over $1 million each. Does
that capture your interest?
If you seek an investment-grade acquisition, we have Bibles
from a few thousand dollars up to $2 million each in stock. If
you seek a great display item for your home, or a precious Family
Heirloom Bible to pass down through the generations of your family,
or a wonderful gift for someone special… we have Bibles from
around $4,000 and up. If you want an ancient original piece of
art to hang on your wall, our Bible
Leaves
start at under $50. Finally, if your interest is purely academic, consider
making some of our beautiful leather-bound Facsimile
Reproductions of history’s greatest printings of the Bible
part of your library… most are only around two hundred dollars
each.
Feel free to CONTACT US anytime
with your questions or special requests. Acquiring the most rare and ancient
printings of God’s Word is the most rewarding and profitable hobby
for the collector, and a wise move for the investor. I look forward to
talking with you soon!
