A good friend of mine is in need:
“Gauchomiller” needs something. For almost 45 years, he has been using an AMERICAN BIBLE SOCIETY, New Testament and Psalms, SERIES 393-395, #???,000- 666,000 QB 12. (SOFT COVER-NOT HARD) but at this point that will work. This has to be the worlds best preaching Bible. It is indestructible. It has thick pages that can be “hit” without ripping. You can use a magic marker and it will not fade through. Bang it. Throw it. Drop it. Wave it over your head. It is immortal. And has GIANT PRINT.
My last soul survivor is dying. ( I had 4, but marked them from cover to cover and gave them to new believers).
My preaching days are far from over and I need to replace this marvel of God’s word.
If any of you can locate such a New Testament……new, used, Old Book Store……..I will pay up to $50 per copy. That is how much I treasure this edition. *The last copy I found was at the ABS office on Tucuman Street, in Buenos Aires, Argentina, of all places. I gave a Methodist minister my brand new in the box, $75.00 Scofield for the one that I use now.
If you have one, know of one, please contact me and I will put you in touch with "Gauchomiller". You can contact me at [oracle on delhi studios at gmail] Leave out the spaces and add the dotcom. That should cut down on the spam.
For my about-to-turn-8 daughter.
I'm terribly proud of myself - didn't have to buy a thing, and it's so cute!
It's "regular" size (i.e. not compact) and there should be room inside for a little notebook as well. If I did it again I might think about adding a plain, flat pocket on the back as well.
I used the pattern from here:

Romans 1:20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse.
An interesting cross. Starting at the bottom, you have Jacob wrestling with "the Devil" (in quotes because most modern scholarship doesn't believe this figure to be the Devil but God Himself, perhaps a preincarnate Christ). Go one up and you have Paul and Timothy talking. One more is Christ as Judge, accompanied by two angels harkeening the end of the world. The very top two symbols are ancient symbols for faith. On the left of the bar is David. The right bar is Daniel in the Lion's Den.
