Local Church Bible Publishers (LCBP) started in the early 90s publishing some of the best quality Bibles in print as part of a ministry to preserve the text of the King James Version. They also reprint old books. They do not believe in making money on God’s Word; instead, they sale their Bibles at the cost of production. This is a ministry of their church and the ladies in the shipping room are volunteers and deserve a love gift if possible. Be sure to click on the Missionaries tab. This tab explains how they are able to keep their prices low and tells all of the processes that are done by volunteers.
LCBP offer Bibles in genuine leather from $40-50, top-grain cowhide from $45-55, and calfskin for $50-57. Amazing. And the quality is as good or better than anything on the market. The calf-skin is about the softest cover that I’ve seen on a Bible at any cost. I recommend any Bible from LCBP.
You can watch a nice video on their website the shows the book-bindery process:
