The Golden Bible: The New Testament

The Golden Bible for Children: The New Testament, edited and arranged by Elsa Jane Werner and illustrated by Alice and Martin Provensen, was published by Simon and Schuster in 1953. This hardcover edition presents the New Testament in a format accessible to children, enriched with beautiful illustrations that bring biblical stories to life. The book's illustrations by the Provensens are particularly noteworthy, adding a vivid visual dimension to the narratives. While the copyright page confirms its 1953 publication, the specific edition is not indicated. This edition remains a charming piece for collectors of mid-20th-century children's religious literature. The book's condition reflects its age, with a worn dust jacket featuring tears and tape repairs, but the content remains intact and engaging.
