Welcome to my blog. I mostly write about Christian Living, but I enjoy the Kentucky Wildcats, New Orleans Saints, and a good cup of coffee.
All tagged Bible rebind
Sometimes you just have a vision for a rebind. That’s exactly how I feel about the rebind I’m reviewing today. I’ve been admiring the work from Reformed and Rebound for quite some time and he seems to only be getting better. I knew I wanted to check out his work and I knew just the Bible to send him. Let’s take a look.
I sent him an ESV Personal Size Reference, which you can get for about $15. He has now transformed it into a premium Bible (I think they should make a premium version of this Bible).
I’m happy to have teamed up with Adrian Alonzo at AE Bibles to give this Bible a look worthy of it’s name.
The world of rebinding is an exciting place to be right now! Many new rebinders are coming on the scene and the quality of work just keeps getting better and better. I had especially been admiring the work of ET Peterson with Rex Rebinds so I reached out to get a rebind so I could see it up close and personal.
At this point, I’ve been blessed to handle a lot of rebinds, but I may be most impressed by the one I’m about to share. This isn’t just a rebind. It’s a complete transformation! I asked Neil McCauley at Resurrection Rebinding to take my hardcover LSB Wide Margin and give it the premium treatment. The results are stunning and I can’t believe it’s the same Bible! Let’s take a closer look at this total transformation.
I remember beginning to learn about the Bible community, joining the Facebook groups, and then being amazed by all the different types of Bibles out there. What particularly struck me were the Bible rebinds where people would send their Bible to a craftsman who would strip the Bible down to the block and rebuild it to the specifications of the customer who sent it. I couldn’t believe the beauty of the Bibles that were being created by these craftsmen. In reality, these Bibles are art and the creators are artisans.
Logos Rebinding is still fairly new to the rebinding game, but he has been quickly making a name for himself. I reached out to Logos about getting my favorite block rebound—the ESV Preaching Bible Verse-by-Verse—and we talked through the details and before I knew it, I was opening a gorgeous and freshly rebound Bible. I’ve used this Bible pretty extensively and put it through its paces and I’m excited to share it with you today.
