YEARBOOK I.B.S.A. and Jehovah's Witnesses vol. 1 - 1927-1942 - $30  
In 1927 the International Bible Students Association, now known as Jehovah's Witnesses, published their first hardcover yearbook, now a rare collector's item. It contained a report of the organization's activities for the previous year. In addition to the report, they dedicated two-thirds of the publication to a devotional. For the first seven years, the title on the cover simply read YEARBOOK I.B.S.A. However, in 1934 they changed the title to YEARBOOK of JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES and the cover also included the year it was published. Search, view and zoom and print any of nearly 6000 pages.

YEARBOOK I.B.S.A. and Jehovah's Witnesses vol. 2 - 1943-1959 - $30 

Upon President Rutherford’s passing in early 1942, the Watchtower Society confirmed that Rutherford successfully completed the 1942 Yearbook of Jehovah’s Witnesses, just prior to his departure. Therefore, the 1943 Yearbook of Jehovah’s Witnesses ushered in a new period known as the Knorr era. Upholding the tradition his predecessor established in 1927, Nathan Knorr continued publishing the annual Yearbook throughout his entire presidency. As with earlier editions, it too contained a report of the organization’s activities for the previous year and a daily devotional text. PC (Windows) and MAC compatible.

 KINGDOM NEWS/DIRECTOR/INFORMANT CD

KINGDOM NEWS/DIRECTOR/INFORMANT - $30 

KINGDOM NEWS - The longest running continually published periodical, next to The Watchtower itself. What’s more, issue #1, released in March, 1918. is arguably one of the rarest of all the Society's publications. After publishing the first 3 tabloid-sized issues in 1918, the Society took a breather until July 1939 when issue #4 appeared as a 4-page (9 x 12) newsletter, followed by 11 more similar-sized 2-page issues from 1939 to 1946. After 1946, the publication rested again until 1973, when it reemerged as a 4-page (7 x 9) brochure. Because the “Watchtower Library” disc already contains the Kingdom News since 1973, this disc will serve as its companion by filling in the gap and transporting the researcher back to the beginning of this fascinating newsletter. 

DIRECTOR - Succeeded the Bulletin and served as the predecessor to the Informant. It enjoyed a brief existence from October 1935 to June 1936. As a result, any issue of the Director is extremely rare. It provided "Field Publishers" with information regarding: organization instructions, new publications, campaigns, statistics, conventions, radio broadcasts, and sound equipment, etc. This disc contains the Director for all nine months, and as an added bonus, it includes the "Special October Issue" and the "January Extra" issue, for a total of eleven exceptionally rare gems. 

INFORMANT - Replaced the Director and served as the predecessor to the modern-day Kingdom Ministry. It ran from July 1936 to August 1956, in two different sizes. Initially, from 1936 to 1950, the issues were the same large 2-page format as the Director (9 x 12). However, some months saw 2 issues, and periodically, some issues were published with 4 pages. In 1951, the issues changed to a 4-page (7 x 9) format, which mirrors the current Kingdom Ministry in format, scope and purpose.

MORE INFO

Rutherford Records in mp3 format on CD-ROM  — $12
Recorded Bible discourses had a prominent role in the witnessing work during the 1930s and early 1940s. As of 1940, more than 40,000 phonographs were being used. Then, at conventions in 1940, a new vertical-type phonograph was introduced. Designed and built by the brothers at the Society's headquarters, the phonograph played in an upright position. It even had a cubbyhole for literature, and perhaps a little lunch. This model greatly facilitated the house-to-house preaching work. It stirred up much curiosity because householders could not see the record as it was being played. Each record was 78 rpm and was four and a half minutes in length. Upwards of 90 different discourses were recorded on 150 different records and over a million were put to use. These records are hard to find now, and this CD-ROM of mp3 files represents the best quality of these recordings made so far. 445 megabytes. Collector's item!  RuthRom-3
