More about this bookseller
We are a family owned and operated business based in Sequim, WA. Antiquarian Bibles are our specialty. We sell Bibles in various languages from a wide span of time periods. In addition to Bibles, we also sell a variety of nonfiction books.
My parents, Rob and Coba, were the original founders of Antique Bible. The company’s origin story has become a family legend. It goes like this:
One day, back in 2006, Rob noticed a beat up old Bible while perusing a local thrift store. Despite its poor condition, he was intrigued by the craftsmanship and brought it home. Content with her modern study Bible, Coba was confused about why he bought it, but sensed something bigger going on. After a sleepless night of Rob researching on his computer and Coba praying in the bedroom, a company was born. They turned their home office into a place to source, store, and ship antique Bibles.To save on shipping, Coba raided the remnants of Rob’s discarded stamp collection. We would sometimes sit around the kitchen table with envelopes of old stamps, carefully adding up 1, 2, and 5 cent stamps and adhering them to the shipping boxes with damp sponges. The local postal workers soon trusted Coba and stopped raising their eyebrows when she came in with stamp-laden boxes.
PASSION, RESEARCH, AND HARD WORK HAVE TRANSFORMED THE FLEDGLING IDEA INTO A FULL-FLEDGED FAMILY BUSINESS.
