Pictures from Old Children's Bible Story Books
Old Bible story books for children contain a wealth of wonderful pictures useful for sermon illustrations, Bible class presentations, and writings. The following are some from my collection whose copyright have expired and, hence, are in the public domain and are free to be used.
Not all pictures from the books have been copied. Often the older books copied illustrations from each other, so I am trying to avoid repeats. I also left out images which were noteably inaccurate or which contained inappropriate drawings.
