Thought I would start a thread on just Heart Shield Bibles.   I want to show as many different styles as possible

I will share whats in my wife's collection & also photos of different styles of covers from EBay & the internet.

 

 

May God be with you

May the Lord be with you

 

This is unusual since it's made for a Jewish bible.  It has a reverse style cover mounting so it aligns just right with the way a Jewish bible was laid out.

I believe these 2 Bibles are from the Korean War.

Metal front & back.

The Bible cloth cover is a silver gray.

Neither of these have a publishing date but one has a 1953 inscription inside & the other was in a mailer that was postmarked 1951.

****  This would be either a Torah or a prayer book; we don't have bibles.  In any case,   Would love to find one to go with my metal-cased bible.  Thanks for posting that rare one.

Tonight I was able to search entire Sears Catalogs from 1940's & 50's.

I made some cool discoverys.

Sears sold Heart Shield Bible in 1943 & 1944.

I bought this year's ago on ebay. The man's group was being broken up, and this was all I managed to get. I took screen shots of his awards. Pretty amazing career of Edwin R. Jarrett.
