Among the gift was a vellum-bound set of the complete writings of Martin Luther, printed in Germany between 1660-64; 2 sets of Luther's Bible, with vellum backings; and original "Breaches Bible," dated 1610; leaves from the first English translations of the Bible, dating back to 1535; an oversize copy of the King James translation, dated 1612; and a number of Latin, French, Dutch, and German biblical editions printed in the middle of the 16th century. Longstreet continued to add to his collection at Albion into the mid-1950s.  He also donated rare Methodist pictures to the Religion Department of Albion College.  Two are engravings of John Wesley, a third is of Wesley at the age of six being rescued from the parsonage fire, and the fourth depicts Bishop Asbury's ordination in Lovely Lane Chapel in 1784.
