Those would be a bible study type of text. Inside the cover there should be a publishers name, like the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania or the Oral Roberts ministries, Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and thousands of other ministries and not-for-profit organization headquartered in the New York City. Religious publishing houses and publisher of Bibles, Christian books for adults and children, audio books, videos, software are all not-for-profit organizations making billions. Somewhere in your books is the publisher name? With the colour of the box they look like a military promotional set sent to troups at war showing the world how great the religious organization is, helping our military? Need the publishers name on bible collectables.
All it shows inside the cover is The Holy Bible containing the old and new testaments translated out of the origional tongues and with the former translations diligently compared and revised. LITTLE LEATHER LIBRARY CORPORATION New York. thanks papa!
