Clocking in at over 80 years old, this book safe is senior member of our Imbibles and SaveYours Collection. It’s a beautiful book safe, but I can’t really think of anything interesting to write about it. Apparently in all its editions it’s sold over 2 million copies, which pales in comparison with the actual bible, but it’s still impressive. I’d make a lot of money if I sold over 2 million book safes, but at my current production rate, I’d have to live to over 1,000. Money isn’t everything.
The blue cloth on this cover appears to be of the royal variety, which would be apropos. The painting on the front appears to be glued on like another book I’ve encountered from the 30s, so maybe that was a common practice. The type on the front and spine is in a fitting gold and an equally fitting font. It’s in exceptional shape for a book even half its age and is quite impressive looking.
