1 | The Red Writing | Rev 1:1 | kalos | 141871 | ||
Red letter editions since 1901 'Mr. William Emmett Shelton, author, of Mogadore, Ohio, and Mr. Laurence S. Heely, Jr., publisher of Christian Herald Magazine, say that the idea originated with Louis KIopsch, the first editor for the Christian Herald. The November 1901 issue of that monthly ran a large advertisement offering a red letter Bible to the readers.' 'The first printing of a red letter Bible numbered sixty thousand copies. They were printed on presses owned by Dr. KIopsch. The edition sold quickly. Presses were run day and night to supply the demand.' (http://www.angelfire.com/la/prophet1/redlettered.html) |

I can identify. I never saw a study Bible (or knew they existed) and was never inside a Bible bookstore until I was 13 years old (1958). I grew up in a town with a population of 100,000 and, as far as I know, there was only one Christian bookstore in the whole town back then. Grace to you, Kalos |
