Die Heilige Schrift Alten Und Neuen Testaments circa 18th. Century. "Biblia Das Ist: Die Heilige Schrift Altes Und Neues Testaments, Nach Der Deutschen Uebersetzung D. Martin Luther"

Antique Bible printed in Philadelphia. All in German, comprising the Old Testament, Apocrypha, and New Testament.

This volume does not indicate the year of its publication, however similar 992 page publications of Die Heilige Schrift Alten Und Neuen Testaments published in Germantown, PA, have been cited as being from the year 1763. For that reason, I am designating this Bible to be a circa 18th. century publication. The family register references the year 1814, indicating it would be at the least an early 19th. century volume, if not late 18th. century. The city of Philadelphia is indicated in the inside title page as the place of its publication.

This volume stands near 12" tall by 9 1/4" wide by 3 1/4" thick. It is remarkably intact for its age.

The front cover is partly loose from the binding, and as indicated in the accompanying photos, there is foxing and and staining throughout in places. Pages 571 and 575 are torn in the center.

With all the visible wear and signs of age, it is otherwise solidly intact. Back cover appears tight and secure, and pages are entirely readable.

A worthy, well preserved addition to the library of any collector.

ELVIS PRESLEY VINTAGE NEWS ARTICLE AUG 12 1980 RARE!!! Featuring full page poster of Elvis in performance!!!

This vintage news article from 'The Globe' was discovered a few years ago affixed on a wall in the building we had just acquired which became our chapel in the Appalachians. It commemorated the third anniversary of Elvis Presley's death in August 1977. The article, dated August 12, 1980 and yellowed with age, was an unusual find. It features a full page size memorial poster of Elvis in performance on one side. On the other it features captivating stories of the performer's spiritual life and of the world's reaction to that 3rd. anniversary of his death.

The article page measures approximately 22 1/2 inches high by 12 1/2 inches wide. It is kept in a double sided plastic case which is approximately 36 inches high by 24 inches wide.

It might interest you to know that our senior pastor was a contact chaplain at the naval base and coast guard academy, and was pastor and founder of Calvary Temple in Groton, CT, where Elvis Presley's wife lived prior to their marriage. They may have frequented this church and prayed at its altars. On one occasion the pastor prayed for whom he believed may have been Elvis' wife, when she and her mother came to the altar. Our pastor visited the mansion in Memphis, TN.

This news article and vintage memorial poster is a rare find not to be passed up by those nostalgic for ' The King' of rock and roll.

John Ashbrook signed letter re Nixon Pardon Rare John Ashbrook signed letter re Nixon pardon.

JOHN M. ASHBROOK
(1928-1982)

Republican John M. Ashbrook represented Ohio in Congress from 1961 until his death in 1982. In 1972, Ashbrook ran against incumbent President Richard Nixon in some state primaries as an alternative conservative candidate. His slogan "No Left Turns" was illustrated by a mock traffic symbol of a left-turn arrow with a superimposed "No" symbol. It was meant to symbolize the frustration of some conservatives with Nixon, whom they saw as having abandoned conservative principles and "turned left" on issues such as budget deficits, affirmative action, the creation of the Environmental Protection Agency, wage and price controls, the gold standard, and most of all, improving relations with the Soviet Union and the People's Republic of China with his policy of détente. Ashbrook withdrew from the race after the California primary and reluctantly supported Nixon. His campaign, although of minimal immediate impact, is remembered fondly by conservatives who admire Ashbrook for having stood for their principles. When President Nixon became mired in the Watergate scandal, Ashbrook became the first House Republican to call for the President's resignation. In this October 8, 1974 letter, he talks about President Ford's pardon of Richard Nixon exactly one month earlier on Sept 8, 1974 He is "deeply distressed." 53-year-old Congresman John M. Ashbrook died on April 24, 1982, after announcing his intention to seek the Republican nomination to challenge incumbent Democratic U.S. Senator Howard Metzenbaum.

Original Chincoteague pony painting by Jan Eichfeld Original painting signed by Chincoteague Island, Virginia artist Jan Eichfeld. Chincoteague Island is well known as the home of the feral Chincoteague ponies.

"For over 80 years, on the last consecutive Wednesday and Thursday in July, Pony Penning is held on Chincoteague. The herds on Assateague are rounded up, and on Wednesday of Pony Penning week the ponies swim from Assateague to Chincoteague. The ponies are held in a pen at the carnival grounds on Chincoteague until they swim back on Friday morning. On Thursday, an auction of most of the foals is held with a few kept as future breeding stock. The proceeds of the auction are used to care for the feral ponies and finance Chincoteague’s fire department. A second roundup is held in the fall for a vet check, an informal sale of the foals born after Pony Penning, and the foals sold in July that were too young to be weaned are picked up by their owners."

Primitive Religious icon of Christ on gilt panel. 1874 135 years old. Beautiful, rare religious icon of Christ on gold painted panel with an antique gilt frame.

Age indicated in small lettering is 1874.

It is unclear what language or languages are represented in the lettering inscribed in the icon. One of the letters ( a character with three curved lines radiating upward and three curved lines radiating downward), is a character cited in Wikipedia as part of the early Cyrillic alphabet. This same character has also been cited as part of the Russian alphabet. This may be an Orthodox icon.

Measurements are 20 inches high and 20 inches wide including the frame.

Remarkably intact for its age, but with signs of wear, and the frame somewhat fragile. A rare museum quality piece to be handled with care, but well worth the interest of a curator or collector.

Sacred museum curator's dream. You can purchase and donate in memory of your loved ones to your place of worship. Will be fully insured upon shipping and sent to that sanctuary.

Proceeds will go directly to our mission chapel in the coal mining village where our chapel has been storm damaged.

ELVIS IN PERFORMANCE ORIGINAL LACQUERED PHOTO ON WOOD Original lacquered photo of Elvis Presley on a hand carved pinewood frame. Hand carved solid pine wood is almost an inch thick. Fully lacquered for life-time protection. Its origin is unknown. Ready for wall hanging. 13 inches high by 11 inches wide.

It might interest you to know that our senior pastor was a contact chaplain at the naval base and coast guard academy, and was pastor and founder of Calvary Temple in Groton, CT, where Elvis Presley's wife lived prior to their marriage. They may have frequented this church and prayed at its altars. On one occasion the pastor prayed for whom he believed may have been Elvis' wife, when she and her mother came to the altar. Our pastor visited the mansion in Memphis, TN. These photos are from his collection. They are being sold with proceeds going to our senior pastor's oral surgery.
