Thrilled to now own the Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit volumes

[BuddyOfDavidClarkson]

It's been a long time coming, but I recently purchased and received (today) Spurgeon's Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit. What a fine display they are in my library.

I told my wife there is 10 billion blessings in these books and all the counseling you'll ever need. ;-)

Have you bought it new or used set ? Where have you bought and for a good price ?

 

[BuddyOfDavidClarkson]

Brand new from cvbbs.com - around $1200. Not cheap but that's the best price on a new set.

Now you will have to spend the rest of your life reading them.

An awesome set! If read, and I'm sure you will read them, they provide some of the best literature available and will indeed be a great counseling tool.

Wayyyy less romantic and impressive on the shelves but you can have all of the New Park Street Pulpit and the Metropolitan for under $100 electronically in the Logos system: http://www.logos.com/products/details/888

Nice thing is I can do a quick search on any passage of scripture or phrase and find anywhere where Spurgeon commented or preached on it.

Or for the .pdf route, you can get them all for $15 http://www.agessoftware.com/ages_spurgeon_collection_1.html

No doubt. No doubt.

All the counseling material you need is in the Scripture and Spurgeon plumbed the depths well.

I also have that but I hate having to read entire sermons on my computer. I posted about this elsewhere, but I've come to the conclusion that I enjoy reading commentaries (reference material) within Logos and enjoying reading sermons/puritan works away from the computer.

It is nice to have it in Logos as well for the searching capability. I can find what I want there and go grab the volume of the shelf.

Man, I'd hate to think what the postage was on that set!

Did you have to add a room in order to house that monster?

How much is the postage (in the U.S and Europe) ?

 

[BuddyOfDavidClarkson]

The postage wasn't that awful. It was $60 on the Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit and $8 on the New Park Street Pulpit.

Overall, the entire set takes up 3.5 bookshelves of a standard 5-shelf bookcase.

The volumes are very pretty too with the dust jackets still on, each one is a different color. It looks like a rainbow of colors from a distance.

(Yes, now I'm gushing)
